of website.........
Right after menstration, your cervix will be low and easier for you to reach. It will feel firmer and closed. During ovulation your cervix will be higher and more difficult to reach. It will also feel soft, wet and you may notice it feeling more open. If you have given birth before your cervix may feel more open than someone who has not. After ovulation, your cervix normally returns to a more firm, lower position.
different website........
At the beginning of the menstrual cycle the cervix will be almost closed, sit low in the vaginal canal and feel firm to the touch. This positioning is indicative of an infertile stage of the cycle and is due to higher levels of the hormone progesterone in the body.
As oestrogen levels rise through the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle and ovulation approaches, the cervix becomes progressively softer to the touch, the opening to the cervix will increase in size and the cervix will move to a higher position in the vaginal canal. If fertalisation does not occur then the cervix will return to its low, closed position through the latter half of the menstrual cycle.
one more website....lol
The cervix is situated at the top of vagina. When approaching ovulation, the cervix raises and softens and the opening becomes larger. When ovulation passes by, the cervix lowers and hardens again. It can also stay high and drop suddenly at the onset of menstruation. Just before the period starts, the cervix is low and hard. This is very good to know if you are trying to conceive. By learning the position of your cervix, you can predict your ovulating days.

I'm one of those people who are just way too squeamish to check my cervix! I thought about asking my husband but it would probably freak him out lol.

One time when I was in the shower I was checking my cervix, as you do, and got all excited because I could feel that it was open, so grabbed OH for a feel. 
I think most of the time mine is too high to feel properly though. I always get confused about when it's supposed to be firm and when it's supposed to be soft as well. Too much to remember
