From what I have read, I think it's 2 months before you can ride.  Yep, no bounce. My back just can't handle a jog. It kills me. But I can't wait to ride. My poor 15 year old daughter is dying to trail ride (that's all I do) but I just don't feel good about it yet..

I totally get it!  I don't even ride my poor 14.3 Peruvian because I feel like jello up there. He is going to need a slow and steady starting over when I finally can. Poor guy is 18 years old and not fit anymore.

Quite honestly welcome to what I consider the slowest board on OH. As we know, when you have horses you just don't have much "spare" time. I know I usually don't especially with the load I have now till winter. 3 horses in training, 2 into shows, lessons for 3 people. And thats also with me working a full time job.

I know I was thrilled when I got back in the saddle. But dont give up the fight.

You're gonna laugh at this one.  I just discovered this forum.  By accident mind you and I don't think anyone remembers that its here I will post on the main board I know theres quite a few people besides us girls that have horses.  Isn't that funny!?

I saw the Spanish Riding School in St. Louis  about 25 years ago and I can still close my eyes and see those wonderfull horses and talented riders it is truly one of those things that stays with you forever.
