What is a cervical opening finger?

A woman may feel pain from

contractions, but the

pain is usually mild and the interval between contractions is long.

Some women may continue to dilate for a short period of time, entering the active phase of labor, while others may progress slowly and take longer to achieve further cervical dilation. This is related to individual differences and fetal conditions.

The doctor will continue to monitor the contractions, fetal heart rate and the progress of cervical dilation.
