Greetings! Ahem... Now that I've been a dad for a little over four weeks, I will draw from my "well-of-knowledge" and share with you what I know concerning lubrication of pins.(snicker...) We have a bar of soap (ivory) that we use as a pin holder which also lubricates the pin for easier insertion through the diaper. (This method was suggested by my mother-in- law) We use both cloth and disposable diapers. We use disposable at night since they seem to keep our baby dryer for a longer time. They are also easier to handle (no pins) when your half asleep. Personally, I like the cloth diaper (Once I got the hang of putting them on) because they seem more comfortable to Sarah Beth and I can tell when she needs a change alot easier. Of course she lets me know pretty quick when she needs a change. so long, Dave Schumacher
