The keys to avoiding leakcs with cloth diapers are:
    minimize use of fabric softener
    maximize layers of fabric
    effective folding technique
    plastic/rubber pants with elastic leg holes IN PROPER SIZE
Benefits are
    absence of irritating fragrances and fibers
    ecological impact
    cost (if you buy your own, instead of using a diaper service)
To make sure you don't pin your baby to the diaper, align the pin parallel
to leg crease.

Graphics in Ascii aren't sufficient for me to draw a diagram, so consult a
local nanny, pediatric nurse, or hospital prenatal instructor for further
advice.
