One of the ways that hormonal Birth Control prevents pregnancy is by thickening the cervical mucus, making it more difficult for sperm to get to the egg. Birth control doesn't close the cervix, but it does make it less permeable.

Can anyone explain how carrying your baby low in your cervix increases your chance of a miscarriage.?

You need to ask the person who told you the baby was low in your cervix, they are the best person to tell you. If your cervix is 'weak' it may open and you may miscarry. I think what you may have though is placenta previa, where the egg has implanted close to the cervix. As your uterus grows it stretches near the cervix and the placenta does not stretch so it pulls away from the wall of the uterus.

You are pregnant-5 weeks your cervix is still open?

You can't see your cervix. I'm not sure why you would think it's open. Have you put your finger in your vagina to feel it? If you do that, it should feel soft like your lips if you're pregnant. If you aren't pregnant it should feel hard like the tip of your nose.
