Is a wife who broke her fast in Ramadan due to pregnancy and has not made up the days for over a year required to make up the days and offer expiation?

The wife is obligated to make up for the days she missed fasting. As for the expiation (), it is detailed as follows: If the excuse permitting her not to fast persists until the following , and she does not have enough time to make up the days, then she is not required to pay the expiation for delaying the make-up fast. However, if the excuse does not persist, then she must pay this expiation along with making up the fasts, which is feeding one poor person for each day.
