When does your cervix start to open and how long does it take to go into labor once it opens?

It varies from person to person. It's not a good indication of labor completely. Someone can be 3 cm dilated for a month before going into labor or someone can be 0 cm dilated and go into labor. Your cervix also has to soften and thin out. You can be 3 cm dilated and 50% thinned or even 10% thinned. It's all random lol.
