Cervical measurements

i just left my cervical length and I saw her write on the measurements . 5.33 cm is this a good thing ???

Re: Cervical measurements

  • Yes, I would say so. I wish mine was that long! I have to go every two weeks for an ultrasound and have it measured. Today I measured at 3.2. Which the Dr. didn't seem concerned about. Anything under 2.5 she would be though.

  • Yes, it's a good thing. I just had this convo with a doc at the perinatal center. The average cervix is I think 3.5 or close to that. Anything more than that is just an extra barrier for your little one.
  • Oh well that's really good news does that mean my labor is going to be so long since it will take twice as long for it to open???
  • I think there are a zillion other factors that contribute to how long your labor will be.
  • That's a great measurement.
    Anything under 2.5cm should be monitored, as well as possible funneling if the cervix does shorten to that degree.
