Question
My daughter is seven and a half months pregnant with a hemoglobin level of 10.3 and weakness. Should she fast on Tisha B'Av?
Answer
Shalom u'vracha
If hemoglobin is less than 10, do not fast.
If above 10, and there is no particular weakness, dizziness, contractions, or the like, one should fast.
If any of the aforementioned symptoms are present, do not fast.
