this means that your cervix is ' ripening & and softening ready for when you go into labour . it begins to dilate a bit which is what is meant by it admitting fingers. Its all normal!!

may be a little early but doesn't mean to say anything will happen. midwife will probably just want to keep a close eye on you !

Thanks
