No. It becomes high and hard. Towards the end of pregnancy it may appear to move backwards as the baby's head comes down in front of it. But as you get ready for labor it will soften and flatten and start to open (Effacement and dilation)

Effacement refers to a stage in labor during which the cervix becomes thin and begins the process of dilation which moves the cervix out of the way so the baby can be born. When the cervix is fully effaced and dilated to 10 centimeters, the baby begins to move down the birth canal.

In IVF, the fertilized ovum is normally placed much higher than the cervix. The ovum would not be able to move from the cervix to the uterus for implantation.
What is placentas?
During pregnancy, the placenta attaches itself to the uterus to provide the developing fetus blood, oxygen, and nourishment as well as removing waste from your baby. The placenta may implant itself at a low position in the uterus, during the early stages of pregnancy. Normally, as the uterus begins to expand to provide more room for your baby, the placenta moves upward but away of the cervix. If it doesn't move away, it may be blocking the opening of the cervix. This is known as placenta previa. If this does occur, the placenta will detach itself from the uterus in advance as the cervix begins to open up for labor. Generally, placenta previa can be detected before any severe harm is caused.

cervix
Are you able to feel the baby kicking your cervix?
Yes, it is possible to feel the baby kicking or hitting your cervix. This is more likely as the pregnancy progresses, since the baby is bigger and stronger later in the pregnancy. You will almost certainly feel the baby making contact with the cervix once the baby has started to engage (starts to enter the pelvis in preparation for birth); when a baby is fully engaged, his or her head will press directly on the cervix. Some mothers will find the baby making contact with the cervix more uncomfortable than others, and for a few it may be somewhat painful. For most women, the sensation is simply unusual.
What happens to the cervix during child birth?
Building up to the actual birth, the cervix goes through spasms and the opening enlarges. It becomes thinner (called effacement) and opens (called dilation). When the cervix is fully dilated (about ten centimetres), contractions help the baby to move from the uterus into the vagina, and the birth takes place.
