If a simple fall off a horse at seven weeks could cause miscarriage, trail riding stables would be making a fortune. Rosie wasn't being irresponsible.

As a women who's birthed a baby, I think it's completely fine to continue to do whatever you do as long as you feel good enough to do it and your doctor clears you. Yes, should could fall and bad things happen. But she could fall in the shower, get in a car accident, slip on ice or trip over her dog. She could also do everything perfect and bubble wrap herself and miscarry. It's one of those situations where you just have to do what you feel comfortable with.

More power to her. Some women are puking their guts out in the first tri. Guess that helps her make weight though? Haha
