Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The subjects will be divided randomly into two groups equal in number, the Aerobic exercise group ( group A) and the Control group ( group B).
Group A will consist of thirty employed lactating women suffering from stress and fatigue. These women will perform aerobic exercise for 30 minutes for each session, 5 times per week, for 6 weeks in the form of treadmill training (60- 70% of HR max) and do some modifications of their routine by following lifestyle modification advice given to them during the 6 weeks of the program period.
Control group (group B):
This group will consist of thirty employed lactating women suffering from stress and fatigue. This group will receive the same lifestyle modification advice that will be given to group (A) during the six weeks of the program period.

Traditional Treatment Arm
This group will consist of thirty employed lactating women suffering from stress and fatigue. This group will receive the same lifestyle modification advice that will be given to the aerobic exercise group during the six weeks of the program period.
Traditional Treatment
1. General advice for reducing fatigue and stress
2. Fluid and diet advice
3. Carrying the Baby
4. While Breastfeeding in a sitting position
5. Selecting Clothing
Aerobic exercise group
This group will consist of thirty employed lactating women suffering from stress and fatigue. These women will perform aerobic exercise for 30 minutes for each session, 5 times per week, for 6 weeks in the form of treadmill training (60- 70% of HR max) and do some modifications of their routine by following lifestyle modification advice given to them during the 6 weeks of the program period.
Aerobic exercise
The exercise will be performed by using the treadmill as the following:
\- The first stage (warming up): It consists of 5 minutes warming up with the treadmill speed set at 1.0 mile per hour.
\- The second stage (active stage): It consists of 20 minutes with the treadmill speed set at 3.0 miles per hour.
\- Third stage (cooling down): It consists of 5 minutes of cooling down with the treadmill speed set at 1.0 miles per hour.
Traditional Treatment
1. General advice for reducing fatigue and stress
2. Fluid and diet advice
3. Carrying the Baby
4. While Breastfeeding in a sitting position
