A chest x-ray is a mandatory part of the medical exam. If you are pregnant, most doctors recommend against doing the chest x-ray since it may harm the unborn child. If you receive a request to do the medical while pregnant, you should complete the entire medical - except the x-ray. You should then contact CIC to let them know you are pregnant and cannot complete the entire medical exam. Once the baby is born, you should then complete the x-ray to complete the medical so that CIC can continue processing your file. At that point you will also have to add your newborn child to your application.

Go do your medicals and inform the doctor that your wife is pregnant. If she doesn't do the xray, he'll provide you with an letter called Pregnancy Deferral Letter. You upload this with her medical report.

Don't do it. It's still risky. Just wait until she has the baby. Congratulations!

Yes you have to wait till the delivery and then afterwards when she is ready for xray then it will be submitted after doing that.
