There are no chidushim here.
The fact that pregnant and nursing women are exempt from fasting is stated explicitly in the Shulchan Aruch. So is the law that people who are sick are exempt from fasting. The only chiddush here is that healthy people who find the fast difficult may eat small amounts every six minutes.
