Cervical Length in Early Pregnancy. Cervical length during pregnancy is usually associated with preterm labor that begins before you're 37 weeks pregnant. A premature birth is likely to happen when your cervix is still short. Under normal circumstances, your cervix is rigid and close.
During the first stage of labour your cervix â the neck of your womb â dilates to a rather incredible 10cm (yes, we did say 10) so that your baby can squeeze his or her way out. Understandably, this can take a while â typically, at least 12 hours in a first pregnancy (although it can be much longer).
