[blparent] Diapers - Reuseable? Or, disposable?

I know, I would really like to use cloth diapers when the time comes, 
but I'm worried about the clean-up and general inconvenience.

I don't think many people use the old pins anymore.  My friend uses 
these things called snappies, which are what I think most cloth users 
prefer now.

Also, there are disposable diapers made by Seventh Generation that 
are supposed to be free of toxic chemicals.

Gosh, I know way too much about this topic for someone who isn't even 
pregnant yet.  How embarrassing.
