Horseback Riding During 1T

adeb9562

Any other 1T horseback riders out there? Anyone else experience some cramping post ride? Have issues sitting the trot? Trouble catching your breath?

 I had my second (or third, I forget) ride since I found out I was pregnant yesterday. I did end up telling my trainer, just for safety's sake. My horse is a good boy and I'm no more at risk from falling from him then I am doing anything else. So, I'm really not at all worried from that point of view.

 However, I ended up with some decent cramps last night post ride and while they weren't bad enough to warrant pain meds, they were pretty uncomfortable. I also had lots of issues watching my breath. It's ridiculous. I'm not sure though if that has to do with pregnancy or with my bi-cuspid aortic valve + pregnancy ...

So, any other horseback riders out there? Are you cutting back at all on your riding? Stopping all together? Not changing a thing?
