Question
My wife is partially nursing and feels well, but she mistakenly ate more than a kazayit this morning (on the Tenth of Tevet). What should she do now? Thank you.
Answer
According to the law, one who mistakenly ate should continue fasting from that point onward, and the mistake does not exempt them from the fast.
However, since she is nursing, even partially, she is completely exempt from fasting.
