The only way to directly check your cervix safely is at a doctor's office.
First and toward the end
Your cervix does not grow during pregnancy but the uterus does.
i was told by my doctor that the normal length of cervix canal during pregnancy should be 30mm.
The cervical opening should be small in the early stages of pregnancy. A closed cervix is a good indicator of a healthy pregnancy.
The cervix is normal until a woman starts going into labor.
A closed cervix outside of pregnancy may be an idiopathic, treatable condition. Idiopathic means we don't know what causes it.

Yes, it is likely that it will happen again, but not always. sometimes when it is short it has just never been stretched out, so after the first pregnancy, it might be ok, and some people just have a short cervix, so its really an individual case.

This means you have a short cervix. I am 22 weeks and my cervix is also 2.1 cm and I have been ordered to bed rest for the remainder of my pregnancy and I may also have to get a cerclage which is a type of stitch they use for extra support for your baby. Having a short cervix during pregnancy increases the chance of preterm labor and even misscarriage. The farther along in your pregnancy the more weight and pressure on your cervix
How do you know you have a small cervix? If your doctor has told you this is so, ask that doctor why it is so. Otherwise, check with a doctor to discover whether you have a problem.
The cervix in men is a small structure at the base of the penis that does not have the same functions as the cervix in women. In women, the cervix is a part of the reproductive system that connects the vagina to the uterus and plays a role in menstruation, pregnancy, and childbirth.
