Sorry for the stupid question, but what does it mean when your cervix is short? Had my 35 week appt today and my doc checked me. Cervix was high and short. I usually get induced due to liver issues, but didn't have them with my last pregnancy or this one.
Also having an ultrasound tonight. Baby was measuring small. I'm nervous...(9)

From what I know, shortening is the first indication of body prepping for labor. Up til about 32 weeks they want you "high and long." And then it starts to drop and shorten before it starts to dilate. So I think it's normal at this phase? But I hope baby measures good on the sono.
Good luck mrshonyez! Hope it's smooth and easy!

I'm pretty sure hotdogz is right
from what I read online, the cervix is 4cm normally, but shortens in length as labor approaches. Basically the same thing as effacement I think! I could e wrong though...
And thanks everyone, this labor has been amazing and completely pain free! I'm just hanging out at 6cm in my room while DH runs a quick errand lol.2009

I had a random check last ob appt (she read notes wrong and thought I was 35 weeks with a transverse baby hence the check) and she said I was closed but shortening.. I was only 31 weeks though eek!!!2006
