Dear Monika,
This directly depends how quickly your stitches heal.
Also consider Uterine or vaginal injury if you had any.
You will be using SuryaShakti daily so that will suffice till you start Surya namaskar.
  • I recommend you to take direct advice from gynecologist/obstetrician on this.
Light Pranayam can be started. Avoid Bhastrika & Kapalbhati. Breathe a bit shallow than usual Pranayama intensity.
Blessings.

Dear Monika,
After your pregnancy you may be eager to continue your daily yoga. Doctors usually recommend six weeks of recovery time for new mothers after a vaginal birth and longer after a cesarean.
You may watch Swami Ramdev's online videos here,

Stephen has nicely advised you. He is an expert in this regard.
