Fasting for Pregnant Women

Question
If a woman is in the early stages of her pregnancy and experiences some exhausting symptoms, is it permissible for her to fast?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: A pregnant or nursing woman is allowed to break her fast during Ramadan if she fears for herself, and she is not required to make a compensation or atonement, but she must make up the fast whenever she is able to, and God knows best.
