Hi,
first of all congrats on the pregnancy! I know things must be hard for you right now. Give your body some good rest. Hopefully you´re not dealing with hyperemesis gravidarum. Did you see a doctor?
Well, for the Match I think you´re still fine with the time. Do not worry, like wtmb said, I´m sure you´ll get your interview calls. They also know about the delay in score reporting, I´m sure.
Feel better!

i'm a mom of three kids so i know all what you are talking about, if you can take the exam in the second trimesterthis is the best bec all these symptoms you're having would be gone and still your baby is not causing any heart burn, back pain, etc
the exam is 9 hours long you have to feel good in order to have the exam
good luck and congratulations

I suppose you have to postpone the exam to after your delivery , because due to my experience CK is an energy consuming and demanding exam! after all you have to sit 9 hours for the exam on a chair and look constantly into the screen.Noe you are not in suitable condition for it and also in the 2nd/3rd trimester I suppose you won't be able to stand still for long hours.
AND CONGRATULATIONS FOR YOUR NEW LITTLE BABY!
I always say that medicine is and should be a part of our lives and not all of it.What's the reason to become a doctor?? The main reason that most of us forget many tomes is to have a better more convenient life.I believe that if in case you can not make it this year , nothing happens , really nothing .It's all in your mind.Still you have your life and your lovely child and ALSO NEXT YEAR AND NEXT MATCH ALSO BELONG TO US.PLEASE TRY TO CALM DOWN AND DO NOT DESTROY YOUR LIFE FOR MINOR THINGS LIKE MATCH.
REGARDS
