Volts and amperage together basically combined in a formula to determine the number of watts, but they are not specifically related to each other. As per Ohm's law V=IR where V is voltage, I is current and R is resistance. since Voltages is equal to current times resistance than makes them directly proportional to each other and therefor related.
Cervical Position. During menstrual bleeding, the cervix is normally low and hard and slightly open to allow the blood to flow out. It feels like the tip of your nose. After your period stops, the cervix remains low and hard and the opening to the uterus (uterine os) remains closed.
AHA! Sistapril here to check back in and report that I do believe that the period-like cramps are a sign of cervical progress! My cervix was closed at 35 weeks, and when I had it checked again at 37 weeks I had dilated 1cm! Hurrah!I did not have period-like cramps at all with my first pregnancy, and my cervix was totally closed when I was induced at 40 weeks.So am not a doctor, but at least in my case I can say that menstrual-like cramps late in pregnancy indicates cervical changes! posted 01/23/2008 by Sistapril.HA!
