Question
Should a woman who has had a miscarriage fast on the Tenth of Tevet?
Answer
Shalom Rav,
A woman who has had a miscarriage should not fast within thirty days of the miscarriage, counting thirty full days from the time of the miscarriage.
Even after thirty days, if there is still weakness from the miscarriage, she should not fast until she regains strength.
