The cervix is the opening of the uterus and it sits at the top of the birth canal/vagina. During pregnancy, it feels like the tip of your nose. During labor it becomes softer, like puckered lips. Eventually it becomes so soft and thins out so much, you can't feel it.

the softening of bones and spreading of the hips as well as baby just laying differently and stretching odd muscles
