soft cervix?

I went into preterm labor at 31 weeks, i am now 33 weeks and i am 1 cm, her head is really low my doctor can feel her, and he said my cervix is soft.

What does "soft cervix" mean? Will i have her soon?

I would say just take it easy and when Dr gives you the ok that its safe to start trying to naturally induce or to be off bedrest...good luck hun

I've had labor stopped at 29, 30, and 32 weeks. I am 36w 3d. Baby was head down the first time At my 32 week hospitalization doc said she was low and felt the head. At 35 1/2 weeks I started to lose my mucus plug little by little. She is still in there being stubborn. I went from 1 cm -2 cm back to closed and now a 1. Almost 37 weeks, I'm only 1cm but losing plug. So....you never know. Hang in there.

When you have a soft cervix it can make it easier for your body to dilate...has your Dr put you on bedrest or pelvis rest because of it
