Boomershakalaka, look at alternate fingerings for your D - you should be able to do a partial barre to play it with one or two fingers rather than fitting all three in. This may depend on your setup. It's more or less what I referred to previously with Dm. I had a heck of a time fitting three fingers in to fret that, but after lowering the action I can cover both the G and C strings on the second fret with one finger. Barring the G and C strings makes it a really easy finger roll to switch between F and Dm, and they're friends who show up together frequently (at least if you like A minor ). For D I generally either barre the G, C, and E strings with a single finger or the G and C with one and pick up the E with another depending on where I'm going to and where I'm coming from.
