What Does 1 cm and 50% Effaced Mean in Pregnancy?

Question

I'm sorry, I should know this. If I am at a 1 and 50% effaced what does that mean? I know that means my cervix is open a centimeter, I just don't know what the 50% means. And that doesn't mean labor is imminent right?

The cervix is what keeps the baby in so the thinner it gets the sooner baby will be here.

it means that your cervix is half the thickness it originally was. hope that helps you understand alittle better :)))
