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.
A normal pregnancy lasts about 40 weeks. Occasionally, labor begins prematurely, before the 37th week of pregnancy. This happens because uterine contractions cause the cervix to open earlier than normal. Consequently, the baby is born premature and can be at risk for health problems.Fortunately, research, technology and medicine have helped improve the health of premature babies.ccasionally, labor begins prematurely, before the 37th week of pregnancy.
