Cost Composite or plastic decking can be twice as expensive as wooden decking because the materials cost more and the structure tends to be more extensive. Composite decking isn't as stiff as lumber, so it generally needs more support to prevent sagging.This can easily add hundreds of dollars to your decking cost. Plastic: 100 percent plastic decking is stain resistant and won't crack, warp or splinter. 2  It doesn't require any finishing. 3  Some plastic decking is made from new plastic; others are partially or completely recycled. 4  Composite: This decking is made from wood fibers (usually recycled maple sawdust) and recycled plastic.
Umbilical Cord Care. The umbilical cord transported nutrients from you to your baby throughout your pregnancy. Now your baby has a purplish-blue stump that is about a half inch to an inch long. It will take some time (approximately 1-2 weeks) before the stump dries up and falls off. It will take a little care and attention to prevent irritation and infection.
Umbilical Cord Care Tips. 1  Clean the stump with a cotton ball dipped in mild soap and water. Dry it gently with a cloth. 2  Fold the top of your babyâs diaper down to let air get to the stump. 3  Change wet diapers right away.  Avoid tub baths until the stump has fallen off.
