Either of these conditions will put both the mare and foal at risk. It seems to be a widely accepted rule that riding a broodmare for her first 6-8 months of pregnancy is okay and can even be beneficial.
How long after a mare foals can you ride her?
The Logistics of Riding a Mare With a Foal
A mare that experiences a straightforward birth should be ready to go back under saddle six to eight weeks after foaling. However, if your mare had a complicated birth, it might take far longer.
Can you break a broodmare?
Yes, its the same basic process as a younger horse but with some advantages & disadvantages because of the age. If you aren't sure, get experienced help. And if she was only young when she did lots of parelli, I shouldn't worry too much she's hopefully forgot most of it now so you can have a fresh start.
