What is obligatory for a woman who did not fast Ramadan due to pregnancy, and then another Ramadan came upon her and she did not fast it due to the excuse of breastfeeding?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
She says, or a woman did not fast Ramadan due to the excuse of pregnancy, and another Ramadan came upon her after that and she did not fast it due to the excuse of breastfeeding. What is required of her? And if feeding is required, is it permissible for her to limit her feeding to a group of people, repeating the feeding to them?

Answer:
She owes no feeding; she only has to make up the fasts. If she left off making up the fasts between the two Ramadans due to an excuse, because she was unable to do so because of breastfeeding, then she only has to make up the fasts. After the new Ramadan, she makes up what she owes from the old Ramadan. This is sufficient.
