I have 4 kids, the youngest being 18, and like many people said, 12 a day is way too high, except for a newborn. Disposable diapers are indeed expensive, but I've heard that the environmental effects of cloth diapers are comparable. Fortunately, it's a problem that is long, long behind me. One thing I do remember is that nothing makes a baby more willing to take a big dump or even a pee than putting on a fresh, clean diaper.
