How can I make up for the Ramadan fasts I missed after postpartum bleeding, and what is the required intention for that?

If a Muslim breaks their fast in Ramadan due to a legitimate Sharia-recognized excuse, they must make up the days they missed after the excuse is no longer present, based on the Almighty's saying: "But whoever among you is ill or on a journey [during them] - then [he must fast] an equal number of other days." The intention to fast must be made at night, and the place of intention is the heart, which is the Muslim's resolve to fast for Allah Almighty. Uttering it verbally is not prescribed, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Actions are but by intentions."
