Postpartum: is sleep or exercise more important?

At 7 weeks postpartum, it does feel like a tradeoff. I can only viably build a fitness routine after toddler is asleep and while bf baby contact sleeps on husband. During thr day I can sometimes fit little bits in here and there, but not with regular confidence.

...but I am so tired! And I'd like some downtime to myself too!
