Fasting on Tisha B'Av at the Beginning of Pregnancy
Question
My wife is currently at the beginning of pregnancy through hormonal pills, week 5, and continues to take two hormonal pills to strengthen the uterus. She is now stressed about the fast and very tired. Should she fast or not, and if so, when should she break the fast?
