Question
Hello, My wife is 20 years old. Two days before Tisha B'Av, she had a miscarriage at the eighth week of her first pregnancy. Thank God, she is now pregnant again and entering the eighth week. This pregnancy is accompanied by general weakness, fatigue, nausea, and vomiting. My wife feels hungry all the time and eats much more than she used to. I would like to ask if she needs to fast in this condition, and if so, until when? Partial or full fasting? It should be noted that she cannot even think about fasting...
Answer
Hello,
She should begin fasting.
If there is special weakness, such as severe dizziness, darkening of the eyes, etc., she should drink in small amounts.
