[ozmidwifery] *stretchy* cervix
Hi all, Can anyone please explain to me what is meant when a MW does a VE and says "the cervix is 6cm dilated but can be stretched to 8cm..". Is this significant of something or just a passing comment? Many thanks, KristinAdvertisement: It's simple!

Hi There, Usually means with a little more pressure on it from the bub's presenting part it should dilate rather easily cause it's soft and stretchy - a nice cervix Amanda Ward Creative Memories Consultant Ph.

It means that your cervix is soft and should dilate quite quickly with a little stimulation from your baby _ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kristin Beckedahl Sent: Monday, 29 January 2007 10:52 To: ozmidwifery@acegraphics.com.au Subject: [ozmidwifery] *stretchy* cervix Hi all, Can anyone please explain to me what is meant when a MW does a VE and says the cervix is 6cm dilated but can be stretched to 8cm...
