Preterm labor can be diagnosed only when changes in the cervix are found. Your obstetrician or other health care professional may perform a pelvic exam to see if your cervix has started to change. You may need to be examined several times over a period of a few hours.
Dilation of the cervix is measured in centimeters. During labor, your cervix will stretch from 0cm to a fully dilated 10 cm. During a vaginal exam, cervix dilation is measured by how many finger widths fit into the opening of the cervix. If the tip of one finger fits, the cervix is 1 cm dilated. If 2 finger tips fit, that signifies 2 cm. The distance the two fingers can stretch wide indicates further dilation. Does It Mean I'm Going Into Labor? Nope, sorry.
