id really depends. when the cervix opens, it is called dialating. for example, i was due April 19th. however, march 29th i was dialated to 3 cm. in my case, i had my baby that day because he was "frank breech" so they are to do a c-section. but some girls go weeks being 1-3 cm dialated, it just depends, and usually happens the closer you approach your due date :) hope this was helpful!

Why does the uterus open during pregnancy?
It shouldn't, in pregnancy a cervix should be closed if your cerix was open more that 2.5 mm they would consider you for a 'stitch' to ensure that the cervix is closed and the baby isn't born early. My advice is go to the doctor and tell them your concern there are tests they can do and sooner rather than later is better.
Is it possible for the cervix to be open during early pregnancy when you are only 5 weeks and 6 days If yes what causes this and is it a sign of an impending miscarriage?
it is called an incompetent cervix, it can be caused by damaged during a previous birth or a previous surgury on the cervix. and from the cervix bein open it can cause a miscarriage, so that wouldn't happen you would need a cerclage which is a procedure in which the doctor will sew the cervix closed with sutures to reinforce the cervix and prevent it from dilating to early... hopefully this would help you because it sure helped me
