The mucosa of the cervical canal (endocervix) is composed of a single layer of mucin-secreting columnar epithelium, which lines both the surface and the underlying glandular crypts. Isolated neuroendocrine epithelial cells of argentaffin type or argyrophil type are admixed with the normal endocervical cells.
Air travel Pregnant travellers can normally travel safely by air. In the absence of medical or obstetrical complications, pregnant women can safely fly up to 36 weeks gestation. Most airlines restrict travel in late pregnancy or may require a written confirmation from a physician.
Your newborn: Bringing baby home from the hospital. Healthy, full-term babies (at least 37 weeksâ gestation) can usually go home from the hospital sometime between 24 and 48 hours after birth. Some late preterm babies (born between 34 and 36 weeksâ gestation) may be healthy enough to go home after a short stay (at least 48 hours) as well.
