horseriding

Went riding today - i ride a friends horses and i'm wondering when to stop basically - only 4 wks pg at mo, and today felt fine, but i dont want to take any risks as these horses have a tendency to be a bit bonkers - i've fallen off before and it worries me now!

any suggestions?

I love riding but i cant say i would do it whilst pregnant (not worth the risk) I had to change my red letter day as i wanted to a loop the loop in a plane (didnt think that was wise!)

i dont ride but my sil owns her own horse and she was advised not to ride while pregnant (dont know y) just know she stopped as soon as she found out

this is something ive been wondering about also - i sold my yearling 2 weeks ago as we were trying for a bay, now ive had a positive HPT, am at 5 weeks and dont know whether to continue riding my mare

She is safe and only a pony, feel fine atm, but not sure if i should dtop or not ? Sure my mom will advise me against riding

Do avoid contact sports and any activity with a potential for hard falls, such as horse riding.

I wouldn't take the risk
