#3 How soon can I ride after giving birth?

podcast
Written By Katie Allen-Clarke

How soon can you ride after having a baby? What birth complications can hinder how quickly you can get back on your horse? What sort of birth should you opt for as an equestrian?

Childbirth is one of the most life-changing experiences a person can go through. It can be a traumatic thing to go through - irrelevant of whether it's your first or fourth baby, or the type of delivery you have.

In this conversation, we discuss:

  • What our birth plans were vs. actual deliveries

  • Our birth plans and the anticipated 'back to riding' plan

  • Riding throughout pregnancy and the effects on birth

  • How birth can be traumatic - for mind and body

  • Recovery from birth, with horses
