New moms are exhausted and in order to follow through on your workout there must be a mental toughness or willingness to do the hard work. You mentioned working out when the baby is asleep but this is often the time when mom sleeps.

There is a period of 6 weeks after giving birth that is not recommended to engage in exercise. Once your physician has cleared you for activity, Begin with the amount of activity you feel comfortable for.
As for the mental obstacles... I just tell them to leave the thinking to trainers or motivators like me, just move. That's the fun part of exercise. It's not stressful and everyone feels better after it's over.

Babies sleep a lot. Of the many naps they take throughout the day, just take 10 minutes of the first part and do one exercise, then lay down. Or you can pick one whole nap time and dedicate it to a full exercise routine and rest during the other nap times.
