The answer

Pregnant and breastfeeding women must make up the fasts they missed in Ramadan, based on the Almighty’s saying: "But whoever among you is ill or on a journey [during them] - then [he is to make up] an equal number of other days." Imam Malik considered this a type of illness, especially when there is fear for the child.
