A. A cervical length of 3 cm (30 mm) during pregnancy is generally considered within the normal range, especially in the second trimester. A cervix is considered short if it measures less than 2.5 cm before 24 weeks of pregnancy, as this may increase the risk of preterm labor. So, if your cervical length is 3 cm, it is not considered dangerously short. However, it may be on the lower side of normal, and your doctor might monitor it more closely, especially if you have other risk factors (like previous preterm birth, uterine anomalies, or multiple pregnancies). Keep attending regular check-ups, avoid heavy lifting or strenuous activity if advised, and follow your doctor’s guidance carefully. Let me know your pregnancy week if you'd like a more specific explanation.
