can you feel your cervix softening
When the cervix is open a couple of centimeters, you can easily slip your finger into the opening â itâs like putting your finger between soft, puckered lips. If you do this, youâll probably feel the shape of your babyâs head, safely encased in the amniotic sac. When the cervix is entirely opened and youâre pushing or close to pushing, you can really feel the head. Women who have done this often describe the head as having an amazing, âvelvetyâ soft texture.
