The change in dilation at this stage of pregnancy is not serious. It can be seen if different proiders perforemed the examination or you may have had a contration when the cervix was first examined putting pressure on the cervix an pushing it open. Now examined and there is no contraction putting pressure on the cervix the cervix is less open. Your body is preparing to go into labor.
