Post pregnancy weight gain is normal. Give six months time before she goes for too much exercise as she is breast feeding and energy is needed for that.
She can perhaps do brisk walking for 15- 20 mins a day for first few days and slowly increasing it to about forty mins until six months after which she can do other forms of exercise.
Happy parenting.
