What is incumbent upon the pregnant and breast feeding woman if they break their fast


Question: What is incumbent upon the pregnant and breast feeding woman if they break their fast, fearful for their children, is it (upon them) to make it up, or make it up with expiation?

Answer by Shaykh Yahya Bin 'Alee Al-Hajooree - may Allaah preserve him:
Upon her is to make it up when she is able to, Allaah - Glorified be He, said:
فَمَنْ كَانَ مِنْكُمْ مَرِيضًا أَوْ عَلَى سَفَرٍ فَعِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَيَّامٍ أُخَرَ
“.. and whoever is ill or on a journey , the same number [of days which one did not observe fast must be made up] from other days.”
(Al-Baqarah:185)
