Okay, it's official. You're a goddess. You know...I've read hundreds of blogs and sites (literally hundreds) and you're the first and only person to address something so basic and fundamental and, as usual, with your winning candor and kindness. I never fail to learn something from you, Pam. A million thanks.
Wow, thank you! I've always wanted to be a goddess! LOL
I have been a single man in terms of preparedeness for a long time (30 plus years, former military), my thinking being around self sufficiency etc. Now I am fortunate to have a beautiful woman in my life and I care for her deeply, but she is not of the same mindset, in fact she actively wants to think that emergencies cant happen...i know from experience, that things are fragile so I wish to ensure that in an emergency, I can ensure she can have items for self care for by herself, for herself...I thankyou for this information...I hope we never need it, but I want to have some preparedness for her...God Bless, Peace and Love to you and yours...CC
p.s. I am not sure I can go with something similar to that lovely bag...if it aint green you know....lol
What a thoughtful gentleman you are and she is a fortunate woman.
Lucky woman 💯
Well, I suppose I’m the opposite. I want to get things prepared and to have bug-out bags. My hubby is a loving man, but doesn’t think things like this would be needed. I, however, see some things already happening (food shortages due to supply chain issues, some farmers are being paid to not produce crop this season), lawlessness has increased, along with other things that would probably be lumped into me being a conspiracy theorist. 😂 I’ve started to put some other types of preparedness together. I’d love to hear any advice from your experiences and recommendations if you have the time. God bless. You’re a wonderful husband to get your wife’s needs put together as well.
@@kristins7904 Hello Kristin, firslty I hope you are well and I wished to apologise for the delay in response. I would suggest that you are wiser than those around you that feel they have to lump you under the conspiracy theorist label, I would suggest that some are choosing denial in the face of all the evidence, are wishful thinking or are really just envious of you taking a stand against the ongoing narratives. As for you question around advice, it would be easy for me to say that there are planty of youtube vids that can help, but actually there are SO many it can be overwhelming. so here are a few thoughts to get you started. my caution is that I just want to stimulate your thinking, trust that you will know whats best for you and your family. but this is to get you on your journey, for which I offer you all the very best.
I would suggest that you break down all things into a simple list. (these are the four pillars of bushcraft with a few steroids on the side...lol). Heat/fire, food, water, shelter I would add tools, MEDS and defence, (I lump first aid/care under shelter). There will be those that respond and say what about bug in and bug out...please for a starting point, think about staying at home, near your neighbours and family (if they are close by). Then think about building your stocks for up to 3 days in bags ready to go. but also that are partitioned from your every day needs (this latter point means that if you stay at home, you have 3 days of grace, to go beyond any panic scenarios and give yourself time if approapriate to think about your strategy. if you need to bug out, then all your bags in car (that i advise you keep at least 3/4 full) and go. once you have a base of 3 days, then start to think about building to 3 weeks, this alters your strategy immensly. but trust in yourself and your intuition, you will know how and where to keep stuff, if you live in a dodgy neghbourhood, think about secure containers/storage or have things away from the house that you can access. build in 3 day blocks, this will be primarily food, heat and water in addition to core kit. if you can build tools and defences for 3 days, you only have to add care items for looking after tools and build stocks of things for defence (amm, bolts etc).
Just 3 day blocks, for longer term, think about strategy over tactics. Things like skills and knowledge as an ongoing concern. water collection and filtration, forraging, forst aid, shelter build, camo, concealment etc and I would encourgae skills like hunting and fishing, but see these as recreation, rather than preperation, I say this, because thinking you have to do ALL of this is massively overwhelming. think of preppping as a pastime in and of itself, go camping, rather than using bugging out scenarious to motivate the family, you can then develop skills together and build strong ties. strong ties are the key when you have a family, it doesnt matter what they think, but the learning comes from fun and the fun from the learning, this is building on your confidence and time together, as we dont know when things will happen. my last two tips come from a disatster planning scenario (i encourage people to let go of worst case sceanarios, the end of the world may happen, or not, but what can happen in my experience, are floods, storms, etc. i lved next to a gas terminal for a while and having spoken with the local security force, they said to me, have 3 days worth of stuff ready to go in under 10 minutes. that was a reality, my very last few tip I owe to studying the effeacts of Catrina. Organise a place to go out of the storm area etc if you can, but have a bag with your passports/ID's ,driving licences, birth certs etc Scan all your professional certificates, have them on both dongles and have them secured away at a friends house or parents and have them stored securely and have them encrypted. i would suggest keeping them in a mobile fire box( no less than 30 minutes resistence time) at the side of your bags and even an encrypted dongle in the car. Then should you have to leave your home for any length of time, you have everything to prove who you are and get access to work outside your area if neccessary.
Lastly, the one we overlook but again I place this under the shelter, work on connectedness, for me it with Our Heavenly Father and his son, for you it maybe different, but thats what it means for me. Have a Bible in your kit and things to bring you together as a family, have some treats, cards, games etc. have comms, but dont worry initially, just think about connecting to yourself, your family and the gifts you have.
I hpoe this helps in some way...but I will be honest and say, that the fact that you have started to think about it, places you in the top few who have and do anything about it. sending you and yours Peace and Love. CC
As an EMT, I learned to keep a sanitary pad for a potential pressure bandage to stop bleeding from trauma.
Is it true you can plug a bullet wound with a tampon?
As an Emergency room nurse, I also keep sanitary pads for bandages. They are more economical than bandages in situations where you need to stop bleeding or dress a wound.
THANK YOU!!!!! Teaching emergency preparedness information is 99% done by men and although it's helpful, it is awesome to have a woman's view on needs for women!! As you said-- one line, and that's it. Wonderful to have an item by item review... and "real" (squatting, pulling pants out of the way, leaking, "lady needs") experience tips
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for your comments.
LOVE WATCHING YOU!
Ma’am, thank you, sincerely, for your concern and earnest attention in this particular area of preparedness. I have disposables in quantity, but you are right to suggest thinking about the time they might run out. And the separate bathroom needs bag with a trash bag inside is a great attention to detail. I had one for my daughter during her school years, but had not made the mental leap to our 72h kits. Thanks, again.
You are an amazing lady. I am definitely on the same path. I just love your ideas. Especially the coins and buckets. Thank you so much.
AMEN! My folks gave me a premade emergency kit, but it only came with 4...I repeat...FOUR sanitary napkins! It was laughable. And I have pretty specific needs in that regard; all natural, bleach free, etc.
I carry colored doggie waste bags to put the wipes or tampon in and then place it in the ziploc bag. That also helps to camouflage the contents of the bag.
Right! Which you can often get a Dollar Tree...
Great idea!
Ostomy disposable bags work great. Handi-wipes also rinse clean with just a little water. Go to the home supply areas.

You’re an amazing teacher. I can see how as a professor you’d be one of my favorites as well. ❤️🙏
We really appreciate your very kind words.
Id love to take your class!
Absolutely the best!!
Yes! I was thinking the same thing!
Never fear! You are one!
We toilet paper ran out during covid, I bought a couple clear condiment bottles at Dollar Tree and used them as a portable bidet. Pat dry with a cloth.
That was an excellent way to solve that problem. Way to go!
We purchased a peri bottle for every member of the family (on Amazon, they come in a discreet bag) as part of our emergency preparation. Luckily we didn’t run out of TP, but we were prepared.
I never ran out, but just in case, I had a back up…. I had hundreds of coffee filters. I am not a coffee drinker, but my sons were, when they lived at home. I knew they would come in handy one day ! Also, I saved all my used dryer sheets. So when we couldn’t get disinfectant wipes, I could make my own with cleaners I had on hand.
That is actually a very good idea
Same, more or less. I bought a portable hand bidet for $12. I use it then use 2-3 squares to pat dry. (I take 2 attached squares and trifold to get 3 layers. With an area rinsed, there is little need for more.) It really does stretch the TP supply.
I’d suggest including some pairs of latex gloves, especially if there’s no access to running water. That would make bathroom use and feminine maintenance a lot easier.
Great idea! Thanks for sharing.
Some people are allergic to latex but you get my point! Use what you have
New subscriber here!
@@soldiersgirl9195 Right, they can use whichever kind they need.
I can see that for a bowel movement but unless a female has a contagious disease there is no need. Blood is not full of bacterial infection like pee and poo. A simple wash is all a person needs.
@@MommaARA if there’s no access to running water, you’re outdoors, even with your own family, and the only way to clean your hands after heavy flow maintenance is with a cold water bottle and something like coin towels that are at a premium, having had a pair of gloves would be amazing, ESPECIALLY as a teen trying not to draw attention to yourself. I know personally that the only way I’d feel clean is washing my hands with soap and hot water, and that’s unrealistic. So gloves, if you have space, are a great idea.
You have a wonderful way of staying classy while explaining the helpful details about personal hygiene. Thank you. I will not feel so guilty about a little vanity-prepping now. I agree it is important to feel good about oneself and also will help those around us to be comfortable if we continue on as we normally present ourselves. Very wise!
Thank you so much. I appreciate that.
My take on this, also, was “don’t forget to take care of your mental preparedness.” If it’s make-up, great, or maybe it’s just a lot of sunscreen and insect repellent that doesn’t make me want to immediately take a shower! And I would never have thought about the Anti-yeast cream but it’s really handy for women AND men! And the perfume? Aromatherapy is such a mood lifter! Great video!🌿🌿🌿
Got to love a woman who can look as beautiful as her, know how best to help the rest of us find our most confident selves in a crisis, and talk about needing more “vroom” from her ATV in the same video. ❤️❤️❤️
As a Dad I appreciate this video! I learned some new stuff, now my wife and daughter can help me complete their bag of goodies which I know nothing about! lol As always, very informative and appreciated!
That is awesome! Thank you for watching and for the support you plan to give your wife and daughter!
Offer them a female urinal device. Seriously a game changer for women.
The Great TP Shortage of 2020 taught me that 1) You can be in a TP emergency situation at home, and 2) TP is much too expensive, 3) There is a way to feel cleaner than by using TP, 4) TP requires special sewage treatment we can cut down on, and be more environment conscious. I bought an add-on deluxe model bidet for $50! For less than the price of three 12-packs of TP! (Mine costs $18, which just makes me angry.) I LOVE IT! It connects to both cold and hot water lines. There are controls to control the flow of water to front or back, and flow strength. I cut inexpensive terry washcloths in half and served the raw edge. I use those to dry, and just a little TP for BMs only. I have only used 3 mega rolls of TP in a year. Globally, other countries have been WAAY ahead of us on this topic! I wish there were portable models; I would buy one! Maybe a squeeze bottle of water? I WILL BUY THOSE COIN TISSUES IMMEDIATELY. Thank you for doing something that is so very, very needed.
They do have portable ones now, or you can go the old school route with a perineal squirt bottle.
I bought a qt. spray bottle from our local hardware store. Mix water and liquid Dial antibacterial soap. Spray self as necessary on any part of body. 2nd spray bottle water only.
Love this. I have been allergic to disposable products since my mom was forced to cloth diaper me in the 80's. I use cloth pads and the Ziggy cup - which is a much flatter silicone cup similar to the luna style you showed here. Women ABSOLUTELY need to try these for the fit before packing them into a go kit. 100%. The Luna style are too long for my body but the Ziggy is nearly flat and so comfortable you don't hardly notice it. There are two sizes of luna style, size 1 for women who haven't had children and size 2 for women who have had a vaginal birth. When you go to the potty, it is normal to have a little leak by the Ziggy cup as your muscles do their normal thing. For women with heavy days in public, you can learn to flex those muscles with the Ziggy to let it release a bit and clean up while you have a stall. In a decade I've never had to remove a Ziggy or Luna style cup in public. As the main method of control with cloth backup, your cloth lasts for YEARS. Side note - cloth pads are regulated devices by the fda so purchase from someone who's got the approvals or make your own but don't sell them. I'm actually shocked there haven't been lawsuits over non fda approved and tested masks but since they're calling them 'face covers' at most stores I suppose that's how. The best place to use the luna or ziggy is in the shower if you have heavy cycles tbh. Remove it, rinse in, rinse yourself, and put it back. I do this first thing in the morning and before bed every night. When it says 12 hrs, it means 12 hrs. 👍🏻 I rinse my cloth in cold water until the water runs clear while squeezing and spray with stain remover before I run the load at the end of the week. Discoloration of the pads will happen. No one should ever expect to have perfect pads. That's an unreasonable expectation and too much work to try to put on yourself, especially in a survival situation. I have medium days and extremely heavy days and the ziggy/cloth combo has allowed me to have my freedom back w/o fear of damaging clothes and furniture if I don't stop to sit on the potty every couple hrs. Your silicone cups will also stain after several cycles. Boil them in water when you notice staining and they're refreshed back to new. It never hurts to have extra and the flexcup is the disposable version of the ziggy cup if folks want to try them before committing to a more expensive silicone product. How women have handled their cycles before these products were invented is something I've mildly looked into. Absorbent leather was tied to the body with straps much like our current day panties function. Other absorbent natural fibers you can collect and discard/bury as you change them and they will biodegrade much like burying your waste but that means learning a bit more about foraging and for a 72 hr survival situation it isn't really something most folks are going to commit the brain power to. I live in tornado country of Texas and I have a ziggy, a diva, and the last few of a box of flexcups packed. I carry a flexcup in my purse daily for the middle of the day this'll last 12 hrs or until I can get home situation. Another product that I know exists but know nothing about personally is period panties - hopefully one of your viewers will chime in abt them or maybe you can do a part II about them and the ziggy. I think you've really helped your viewers a LOT with this topic. Ever since I was the older girl having to help the first time girls who started at camp, I've always carried extra product for other girls because that's hard enough for the first timer to discuss much less while away from home at camp with a bunch of other girls at an age when girls are mean. This was back when phone cards were a thing so I always had them call their mom's and then tell me what product their mom wanted them to use and we'd walk to the convenience store next to camp *approved location* and buy what they needed. This is a necessary consideration even if women don't want to talk about it. We need to. 💜
Thanks so much for sharing all this information!
Wow! I’m sorry but idk how I didn’t know about these things. I’m so glad you gave instructions and experience too. That will so help me and then I can help my daughters.
Great info! About 20 years ago l tried the diva cup. lt works as it should - at the time it was a flexible round of silicone with a thin, plastic like, sheet that expanded to fill with blood. And ya, it's amazing how little there is! l liked it to an extent but being much less environmentally aware, l preferred and went back to disposables. l like to think l would use them now and wow, how much better they would be in a dire situation when disposables can't be replaced!
I am a father of two teenage girls and 1more on the way. The information you just gave me is terrifying and now I have re up the girls bug out bags. Where do I get this stuff?
@@hellogoodbye3129 I believe the flex disks *disposable* and the ziggy *reusable body safe silicone*, the disk shaped ones, are available at the pharmacy now. The diva cups and luna cups *body safe silicone*, the cup shaped ones, have been at the pharmacy for a while. There are 2 sizes. Size 1 for ladies who have not had a baby yet, and size 2 for after in these cup shaped ones. I saw them at CVS not too long ago. There are several brands.
I buy my cloth pads from a lady on Etsy because I haven't bought the supplies to make my own. Hand Sewn By Me is her brand name. Various sizes and patterns so the girls may need to help you find the correct sizes to buy. Having a full kit, enough for one full cycle each is a good idea. Girls living in close proximity tend to sync their cycles. Just how biology works, so for cloth it may be a little expensive to buy all at once. Just as backup for the silicone products, 2 per day is sufficient at an average 5 to 7 day length, abt 14 per girl. They pack well in a suitcase for vacation but take a couple ziplock bags and detergent to help with washing in a long term bugout situation. Can drop them with some water in the ziplock, a little detergent, shake around, soak, shake around then rinse and hang dry. Did that with cloth nursing pads that I had to change at work. Put them in a ziplock with a little dish soap and water because of the milkfats in breastmilk and washed when I got home.
Another thing to consider when looking at these products for teens and tweens, is the woman who will be helping them with their period the first time. My mom didn't want me using anything like these cups or tampons because she had some old notion that it 'ruined' me. Other mothers don't have this issue and will help the girls but it can be painful to use tampons for young girls due to the hymen that may still be present so they may not want to use things like that so the cloth pads will become more important to have for the youngest. I know this can be an overwhelming thing for fathers to deal with. My girl is way too young and I mentioned duplicating my supplies and might as well get some packed for ours since we don't redo our pack too often and he was quite embarrassed that he didn't think of it but also didn't want to think of his baby growing up. Your older girls that are old enough to have their cycles can help figure out what to pack. These reusable cups and disks are something they should be familiar with before having to bug out so ask them to go shopping or purchase them from Amazon and have a conversation abt it. You want to pack these for just in case but need them to try them out and see if it will work for them because disposables aren't going to be a thing while moving around. And can I just take a second to give you kudos for being a dad who looked into this for his girls. 👍🏻
This is wonderful information! Thank you! ❤ I have 3 suggestions for anyone interested: 1) Evening Primrose Oil is great for helping eliminate menstrual cramps, pain and even helps with hemorrhaging.
2) Wild Lettuce capsules or leaves boiled in tea (it's found around the US and abroad) is also great for any pain, including nerve pain.
3) To conceal your used trash bag, you can use an extra ziplock, cover the outside in duct tape (There are different color options if you fancy that) and then place your personal trash ziplock inside for extra concealment, and protection from leaks and odor. Putting some kitty litter or a tiny bit of rubbing alcohol/hand sanitizer inside the trash bag can help keep down the scents too.
Thanks again! ❤
Excellent. I definitely need to share this vid. Well thought out. Videos take a lot of time and work, so I appreciate this. The chocolate in the kit for young girls says everything about your heart!
Thank you so much! I appreciate that.
The best "tip" ,so precious, was the dove chocolate! You are a wonderful grandmother I am sure.
I have an emergency kit in my wife's car. Nearly always has 1 or more ladies embarked. And I noticed one glaring omission: No Feminine Hygiene products. So I'm trying to put together an FHK.
TH-cam thought I might want to see this, and surprisingly I enjoyed it! That red bag looks like a huge moral booster all on it's own. I tend to use incredibly bland things like the bathroom bag, but I need to think about how a pretty bag might serve in a stressful situation.
I remember at least a decade ago I was on a visit home. My mom was puzzled and amazed by my array of cloth feminine stuff. (I go for the fancy patterned silks, silky rich colored bamboos and hand dyed velour's. Along with semi-utilitarian vivid fabric patterns.) Asked her why she'd never mentioned any of these options existed. Apparently she had never even heard about it. I felt so bad for her. Cloth stopped so many issues for me.
Bought her some liners, in the same fancy crafted styles, in case she ever had weak muscles. Apparently she has worn one every day of her life since, because they are so soft and make things nicer in the Florida heat. Most I bought for her have the felted soft organic wool backed, because she loved those, and they breath extremely well.
I used the silicone cups occasionally for travel backup, beaches and swimming, but I haven't felt like dealing with that kind of hassle for many years. Same reason I never liked tampons. Also....back when I looked at cups there was a natural rubber version. No idea if the silicone was being made yet. Ladies, let me tell you, if you are latex reactive, you may also be just as badly reactive to natural rubber. Find this out some other way ;)
My purse functions something like this and the bulky rest is in the overnight case.
Purse (using a removable purse organizer): good strong scissors, hard nail file in a case, nail clippers, a Leatherman, couple different wound ointments, antiseptic, small bandages, 50 rubber bands, travel sizes of aspirin and similar, sting/bite medication, other allergy medication, two types of cold medication, indigestion medicine, 2 travel tissue pk., folded empty gallon zip bag, 6 small cloth wipes plus 2 pads in a small double sided wet bag, 4 pretty handkerchiefs, measuring tape, calculator, hair clip that holds the whole mass, comb, pen, pencil, metal ruler, pink salt, zip bag with wooden fork spoon knife...and other things I can't remember. Phone functions as a calculator now, and so much more these days, but the calculator remain.
All fits in a medium vintage Coach bag, which I was able to get a longer strap for, wearable cross body style. Just need to rotate out the medications and rubber bands.
When I was younger, people depended on me having all that stuff and more. If I went out purse-less, just wallet and keys, they would often all want to turn around and have me get it. The time a guy went home with a flowery menstrual pad, rubber banded to his leg, was something. Figured his mom would never let him go anywhere with us again. I was wrong. Instead she wouldn't let him go anywhere with us if I didn't have my 'medic bag' ha!
We always had a pre-teen bag set up for the growing girl. A bit overpacked because it was difficult guessing what she might prefer. All she would guess at was colors/patterns/fabrics. Not the most helpful, but how could she know? It really is highly personal. She did eventually appreciate the overpack though, because she got to try a bit of everything in every size and shape imaginable.
Thank you for sharing your story. Very interesting.
Boy do I appreciate your contribution. I thought I was nuts..nothing personal on you..just glad to see someone that packs everything but the kitchen sink 😊. I also keep a snack size zip bag of q tips and cotton balls, tweezer, eye drops, reading glasses. God bless you and keep you and your family safe.
As another redhead, I feel you on the no color eyelashes. My daughter is luckly a natural. Great ideas for kit. I guess a small mirror is in one of the makeup pieces.
That was a good how to for the beginners; very thorough. I like to go back to your older videos and watch them and this was one of them I hadn’t seen before, bravo well done. Thank you Pam. I pray that many have prepared, we are in (2yrs later) in even scarier times and much more coming our way. Best wishes to both of you and blessings.
Thank you so much! I appreciate your comments.
Thank you Rose. Hadn't even thought about this. Surprised by the info. Some things I hadn't even heard of...like coin towels.😃 Very excellent info.
For feminine needs there’s a “go girl” for urinating. You can urinate while standing, so no squatting or worries about splash back on your pants or clothing. Used a cup for decades, very easy, economical (over the approximate 10 yrs.) useful and simple to use. Like inserting a diaphragm or tampon. Highly recommend, there are only two sizes…vaginal birth or not. Combined with reusable pads, a more efficient system than trying to stockpile disposable tampons/pads. Great channel and videos….a very happy new subscriber from Canada 🇨🇦.
Thanks for your comments! After making this video I did learn about the Go Girl and now have one in my pack!
@@RoseRedHomestead excellent…just practice the placement of the insert pan (go girl) for a good solid seal. Honestly, it’s quite handy and once you get used to it very simple to use. Am binge watching your videos….quite informative and interesting at the same time. Thank YOU and to your hubby for filming. 🙏🏻
@@colleenmcintosh6974 You are welcome!
Oh yes! The "go girls" and similar are awesome! I always carried the hard smooth plastic versions on any trip, in a zip bag. Especially the ones with known regular traffic backups and nowhere to stop. The Florida turnpike was guaranteed to make at least one female in the car need to go, and all around in every direction for miles and miles were only trees. They still go on any interstate trip. Random public restrooms can be daunting things if a thigh or calf is injured. As in no hovering in mid-air.
@@rainspringing yup, honestly they’re invaluable in a pinch!
Well I wasn’t going to go back and look at this video thinking at 78 I don’t need to worry, boy was I wrong! What a super video with so much information that I didn’t know I needed. Goes to show you can learn a new thing or more when you look and listen. Thank you for your open honest view of feminine needs. Amazon here I come again 😄
Oh my goodness! You made me laugh! You said, “ I’m a redhead! I have no eyebrows no eyelashes” I’m a red head too, although I go bleach blond ☺️. I grant you, even in the apocalypse, I would NOT be without my mascara or eyeliner!
😁 It takes a fellow redhead to really understand that! Thanks for your comments.
Strawberry blonde here who also goes bleach blonde. I feel you on the no eyebrows, haha. I am so lucky though, my eyelashes are darker brown now that I am older, but mascara and chapstick are a must even for the gym.
Sadly, it seems most women start losing their brows and lashes as they age. I started using eyebrow makeup in my 50's.
@@funsizedi88 me too.
You might find that tinting your eyelashes & brows is a good option.
Thank you Pam .. this is a great idea and I have taken it on board. Because I sew, I added a little thing I made and it holds needles, thread, pins and safety pins, and a small pair of scissors.🌻 Australia watching ….
Loving the fact someone is finally covering this! Thanks!
You are welcome.
Very useful information, thank you! I also carry a bathroom kit in my purse. It's just 3 1/2 by 5 1/2 inches, but I manage to fit everything I need in it. I also include a tiny bottle of hand soap in an old tiny eyedropper bottle and hard surface spray in an old tiny spray bottle that used to hold breath spray. This is for use in a public toilet that may not be up to standard.
Those are great ideas! Thank you for sharing.
I carry alcohol in a spray bottle. A bar of soap. Nail brush.
Bought a bigger purse to keep with me
There is no subject that this dear lady cannot dissect with grace! Best teacher ever!
Every young girl/women should watch this video.
My daughters and I loved your video on our feminine care. You should run for Supreme Court Justice, You can define want a woman is!
Glad to see you shared this with us. Good info for those just getting started. I love your videos.
Thank you so much!
Thank you for this!! You are an excellent speaker/teacher/presenter and such a class act.
I hadn't seen this video before, and it is a must watch for women. I am well past menopause but I have a daughter and 2 granddaughters, I will be showing them this video, too.
Pam, there is no one who could teach this with more class and as straightforward (without embarrassing either yourself or your viewers), like you have in this video! Thank you! I learned a few things, too.
My sister and I put together an OMG bag for my daughter in preparation for her first period. It had all that you have but it also had a couple pairs of underwear. It was also a cute little zipper bag covered in sequence that actually had the letters OMG on it! 😄. Love your videos! Incidentally, she has now started and prefers the reusable ones over disposables.
It sounds like you have given her a wonderful gift.
Thanks for a very informative video. I know there are others (like myself) who were not familiar with the washable pads and cups. I have heard of the cups, but they were not around when I was younger and I was just set in my ways with using pads and tampons when they *did become available (I am 68). Something that I added to my emergency supplies is a female urinal. Having worked as a nurse for 44 years, I often wished that the hospital provided them for female patients. They would be so convenient and a lot more comfortable than having to use a bedpan if someone could not get up to use the bathroom (or use whatever "facilities" were available). I know with having back issues, I may not always be able to use the nearest bush if it came to that LOL.And I will look into those washable incontinence pads.
Great idea! Thank you so much for sharing.
I will say that there is a go girl! Feminism urinal
I am a new subscriber in my 70’s. I think you are amazing and have learned about things I didn’t know existed 🙄. Your candor is just what women need to hear. It’s now March 2022. God only knows what’s to come so you’ve certainly educated me dear one and I thank you so much! 👏👏👏👏😄
Welcome to our channel--so glad to have you join us.
Wonderful talk. Another tool that can be used for digging and will fit a bathroom bag, and suitable for children, is a garden hand shovel. I have one used for planting bulbs. It’s narrow and has “teeth”.
My mother told us she had and her sisters had to wash and bleach out their “rags” each month.
A few tablets to help movement or stop movement..stress causes these symptoms. Absolutely wonderful video. Sharing this one! Thank you.
Good idea! Thank you for the information and for sharing it!
Wow! Thank you so much for delivering this important information in such practical way and with such class! I was raised by a single dad. He did was very best but I missed out on a lot of this information and now I'm a thirty-eight-year-old mother of three girls. We are learning how to be classy ladies together. I absolutely appreciate what you've done here. It's sad that I actually haven't seen anything like this up until now in the preparedness community. Women like you are rare. You are a fine example thank you!
This is Jim: I was a single dad, too. My daughter was between the ages 5-7, before I got remarried. And for me, shopping for girl's clothes was a real adventure for both of us. (I had no idea what I was doing.) Her mother had done all of that before I received custody. It sounds like to me, that you and your daughters will be very classy ladies. I too, am surprised there is so little help out there for single dads, much less moms like you. Keep up the great work with your daughters. Thank you for watching our channel. (I received full custody when I got divorced from her mother and I would not trade those years with my daughter for anything. Before I remarried, she was "my kid"--and of course after. I would tell women I would date, it was package deal--"me and my kid"
--and if my daughter did not like them, I would break it-off. I found a wonderful woman that my daughter could love and call mom and she could love my daughter without reservation.) I apologize for being so long-winded.
Very informative, thank you. As for the cloth pads, fold it in 3rds then snap. That way the ends are folded inwards and the snap will hold evenly. Thanks again for a good reminder to be ready for the unexpected events.
Great tip! Thanks for watching.
It floors me a little bit how much this subject gets underexamined, since it's a thing pertinent to basically half of humanity. Thanks for a brutally honest, thorough explainer of a subject that IMO doesn't get covered nearly enough by preparedness advocates.
Bingeing on Rosey Red as my Mom calls her. Thank you so much for ALL the golden nuggets!
Our church makes them to send hygiene kits to young women in 3 world countries-not a bad idea for those of us living in this country-
A lovely, practical idea!
Everyone should have you as their mother. You did this with so much class and taste, not to mention being “Real”.
I love the thought of the reusable feminine pads and the coin towels, something I would have not thought of.
Thanks so much for addressing this topic. It’s so much appreciated.
You are very welcome. Thank you for your kind words.
I hadn't thought about adding Monistat to my kit, but even a 3 day treatment seems a bit bulky, especially for people on foot. A single fluconazole (Diflucan) table will take care of a yeast infection quite efficiently while taking up very little space. Also, instead if carrying shampoo, conditioner, soap and deodorant, I've packed a 3oz bottle of Irish Springs 5-in-one. Thanks so much for your video, it was very informative.
since I stopped using paper products, I no longer have any of those problems, but I may stock up on some monistat and preparation H for others.
Some people are allergic to Diflucan. And can only get it with a doctor prescription. But yes do what is necessary to stay prepared.
Oral diflucan is toxic and systemic. It is cytotoxic to Eukaryotic organisms. So yeah it kills fungal organisms . You are also a eukaryotic organism. Diflucan can be harsh to your kidneys and screw up your micro biome leading to diarrhea etc. topical treatments are safer.
Ageless information. Thank you for your research, organization and courage to put together information on such a private subject. I will begin gathering my bag tomorrow. I suggest adding an extra zip lock bag for the wet face towel so it can be protected and used again . Thank you, Pam. Susan B.
You are very welcome. And adding an additional zip lock bag is a great idea--thanks!
@@RoseRedHomestead My bathroom bag is now in my car. I am ready! Thanks
@@susanbulgawicz5774 Good for you!
You could also put the wet cloth in one of the mesh pockets so it could air dry for later use.
Thank you so much for a sensible, straight-forward video on matters that truly do need to be addressed! You did beautifully with poise and wisdom. I am impressed!
Thank you so much!
Brilliant video, with lots of great ideas, and thoughts that may not have occurred to many women. BTW, I learned long ago to buy rubber sheeting by the bolt. It's behind the cutting counter at fabric stores. It can be cut for use as pads for under a patient (underpads), for pets as pee pads, and for protection on beds, chairs, sofas, under either regular bedding or under fitted furniture covers. If a person or pet vomits on the furniture, the cover and rubber sheeting can be washed, the sheeting hundreds of times. Of course, that could be a problem for emergency preparedness, but when everything is working, that's a valid idea.
Terri here…again. They now have “period panties”!!! Now, at 69, I don’t need them…but incontinence!!! What a boon! Am goin to try a couple of pair to see how they wok.
This is a wonderful caring video. Thanks!
Outstanding! I’m proud of you for plain speaking regarding this subject. Many women (and men) have difficulty speaking about the natural function of the human body and women’s body function in particular. The info was thorough and real! Even though I am well supplied, this info is a blessing for many many others. I even learned of new products, which I don’t require, but have family and friends that may want to add to their preps. Thanks for sharing!
You are very welcome! I appreciate your comments.
I have 12 of everything, deodorant, shampoo rinse, eye solution, tooth paste, brushes, extra eye glasses, extra contacts, etc...restock each time I use.
That is a good way to prepare! Thanks for sharing.
This is awesome. I had no idea about the washables nor the cup. My grand daughters will love this!!!
As having been a prepper for the last 2 decades, I would like to qualify the term “bug out”. The only time one should ever bug out is if one’s permanent shelter is in mortal danger of fire, flood, tornado or sink hole. One should always first BUG IN and prepare to defend your home and shelter with all of your supplies! Never abandon your supplies and safety unless it is absolutely life threatening to stay. However- I recommend that a bug out bag and supplies should be in every vehicle you own and go with you wherever you drive your vehicle.
Thank you.
Such a great video! Took notes, and will definitely implement all of this. These tips are not only great for survival but for traveling as well. Thank you for this very informative information.
Glad it was helpful!
I've never heard of coin tissue. I must add some to my bathroom bag.
Aren't they just great! I carry some with me all the time! Thanks for watching.
I have some. It's awesome
same here. I have young grandchildren and thought immediately how handy those would be in the car, so we can clean up after a trip to the park. I usually bring a wet washcloth in a ziplock bag, but sometimes I forget, or we have an unplanned stop.
Ikr! It is a great idea. I immediately went on Amazon to price some for myself. I notice that this is an older video and I am just not watching it June 14th 2022. But the information is still relevant
I see they have different amounts and different thicknesses/sizes.
A terrific video Pam, what a wonderful collection of information for us all to digest! Current supply chain shortages during this pandemic highlight the necessity to act on some of these new ideas and concepts! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching and for your comments.
Yeah I like to make my own too.
I LOVE to use the pencil cases (which I snag after school goes back in session - usually on sale) to organize my items inside my bags/purses. I love how you did this video without making it awkward. I think it’s the science background that does that.
Thank you so much.
I’m so glad I found your channel. There are yeast infection medications that are taken orally too. I keep them in my emergency storage and I never travel without at least two of them. That would be much more compact for your bag. A woman who can use them might consider a menstrual cup. I don’t recommend them for young girls. The cups have a learning curve but once you are used to them they are awesome. I boil them at the end of my period to kill any bacteria. I also really like the go girl funnels for when I’m peeing outdoors. We call those coin toilets whizzy wipes. I stock those too. My daughter is 12 and I’m peri menopausal and we wear period underwear every day. They are wonderful. I don’t want my little girl to get a surprise like I did when I was 13 and got my first period at a church social. I am not as regular as I used to be so there’s no more fear while I’m at work. The cloth pads are terrific as well. They wash well as do the underwear. You can get period bathing suits for little girls who aren’t using tampons too now.
Terri here. You handled this so well. I am impressed. Bless you, and may we be safe. God be with you.
If ever a TH-cam video deserved an award this one would be it. I have literally been thinking in my mind a way to to express on my own Facebook page everything you just expressed here.
And my younger years we didn't use the term prepping or prepper. We were self-reliant and prepared for if we should fall on hard times.
" Hard times" We were a mindset of being self-reliant and prepared to take care of ourselves if we fell on
"Hard Times."
And today the term for bugging out is being conceived of only getting up and leaving everything you have at home. Well bugging help can be done at home just as much as leaving.
Extraordinary things would require you to bug out. Any and all kinds of natural disasters. And unless we have bomb shelters buried in some secret location in the forest where are we going?
Most bugging out will be done in our own homes.
I live in Northern New York. We have wonderful nor'easter storms. And every now and again in this summer we'll have a microburst. And the power is out for a third of the state. That's bugging out in place and a big way.
Unfortunately there's two generations below me that do not have this mindset. I have one other suggestion that I could add to this. My firstborn was almost 50 years ago. I used cloth diapers. Wonderfully padded soft three panel, rectangular cloth diapers. When they started having the run on toilet paper I decided to cut and hem these pre-fold wonderfully soft cotton diapers that I used over 50 years ago. For ladies they make an extraordinary soft cleaning cloth that wash very easily. If they were good enough for our babies then they are good enough for us ladies. I would even go so far as to recommend going to Walmart or wherever and buying a package of lovely pre-folded cloth baby diapers.
Even today they still are choosing to close their eyes for the hands over the ears, maybe had a fear.
But I so wondered how could I so politely and clearly say all that you did in this video.
Thank you so very very much.
I have learned SOOOO much from this video. I'm 67 and I had never heard of the diva cups or the coin cloths. Wow. This video was so educational. Pam, you are so beautiful inside and out. My mother was a redhead she was amazing and so smart.
I love your hair it is beautiful but in one video it was more natural and you looked beautiful. More like your sister wears hers. You should wear your hair like that sometimes. Either way, you are AWESOME!!
Wonderfully put!! Very classy. Thank you so much, I am glad I found this page. Also like to add for cleaning cloth diapers, pads or family cloth ( washcloths for cleaning after the rest room) there is detergent to help to use occasionally to soak out any smell issues or build up of soaps. The detergent is called rocking green. I use this when i cloth diapered my kids and also few times a year with towels, sheet etc because stuff builds us over time.
Thanks for your comments and for the tip on rocking green!
Her about being seen without make up :"It happened one time. That was enough. " 😆
I know that mindset is something that not very many women have, but I have to do what works best for me! LOL
@@RoseRedHomestead Oh, I hope you didn't take that as a criticism! I wasn't being critical at all . I should have added that I just love your personality ! I think you are fantastic + really appreciate your classy style.
In fact , I was laughing because I completely identify with not going out in public with zero makeup. Always have to black line my nearly invisible tiny eyes. Keep being your awesome self, RoseRed .
I will be watching for your great videos as I try to figure out what I need to do to prepare for the worse nightmares ahead in America. Looks like you live on the western section of our country + I'm in the unusually cold state of Maine, so
I will have to consider prepping for some sub zero temps as well. We won't be shoveling through the frost to bury anything till Spring. I feel very sorry for the bigger city dwellers in
bock appartment buildings. No garbage trucks is going to really be horrific for the long term . Too bad our government is disintegrating under our noses , but I agree with you that we have to do whatever we can to stay as clean+pretty as possible under all circumstances.
Don't be shocked when the powers that be soon try to strip us of ALL of our God given dignity , as they are already putting into motion many things that will probably soon make life for many of us who believe in freedom impossible . I pray we will all be ready to face that final day we have with as much gratefulness as you display in your beautiful videos.
💖💕💖
4 years later all this information and encouragement is just as relevant and educational. Thank you so much for sharing your research and advice
Thank you so much! You've covered an important subject that often gets overlooked. I love watching your channel.
This is amazing!! I have 3 daughters. I needed this! I appreciate you and your channel. Thank you for caring enough about us women to make this video!
Thank you for sharing this information. Great ideas and display of products. I remember talking with my Grandma 40ish years ago about how she grew up on a farm in Hungary in the early to mid 1900's. She told me girls used old rags during their monthly. I found it a bit odd when she told me about that. I couldn't have imagined doing that, but that was all they had and lived through some very hard times. Fast forward to today, I find myself remembering a lot of conversations I had with her, in a way she was preparing me to be a prepper today...It was just called surviving to her back then.
Such a lovely story. Thank you so much for sharing.
Hi Rose you are simply a terrific teacher, thanks much for this video. I learnt quite a bit.
So glad you talked about this! I made washable cloth pads and stocked some yeast infection meds. Hygiene stuff.
And I love your description of going to the bathroom outside lol! It's exactly like that!
This was an awesome video on a topic that needed to be covered and never is. Got a few ideas of things I need to stock up on. Thank you so much.
I decided to watch this again and I throughly enjoyed it again. It was a treat to see your earlier intro and music!
I have someone in mind who needs a beginner kit at Grandma’s house. Grandma also needs a kit! I camp in my van from time to time and have a bathroom kit in it. I also have one in my get home bag. Pam, I love your straight forward approach to the functions of the human body and the thoughts of what we might need can get even more detailed and personal. Birth control is something that some people may need, for example. Baby items is another specialty. Or a home delivery kit for the car if a woman is approaching her due date during an emergency.
Nancy: Thanks! Jim
As a man I appreciate your fully faceted approach & demonstration video for women’s safety/wellness while out in a grid down/72 hour plan. These are also excellent options and oh so helpful for men as well, just transpose the feminine products for unisex/men’s products.
What a great video. I wish I had those items when I was a construction worker back in the day! When I got my menses, I never put my tampon in the porta potty because I didn't want the guys to know I was on the "rag" so I put it in my pocket lol! Nobody knew! Thanks for the video. Love them all.
Thank you for your practical advice and information! I’m in my 70’s and I learned something about feminine products that are available. Something my sister told me about is a device women can use to urinate standing up fully clothed like a man! One is called Tinkle Belle female urination device.
Thank you for all of your videos... I feel like you’re a wonderful friend.
Thank you. I learned about those feminine urinary devices after we made this video and I now have one.
@@RoseRedHomestead Is that device something one would need to practice with? I feel like Id still make a mess?
Wow! thanks for sharing! Well done! I never heard about the reusable pads and cups. Way to go Pam! Please stay safe 😊 👋
I salute you madman. I am a75 year old woman, and want to sincerely thank you for your candor and no nonsense, straight forward information on this topic. You make me proud. Thank you on behalf of women everywhere.
Charlotte
Charlotte: Thanks! Jim
I am going through your old videos that I have never seen. What great videos Pam thank you so much!
Thank you! Some of the early ones are so beginner quality! But that is how a learning curve works. You are kind to stick with them!
Miss Pam, Excellent video with SO much helpful information!!! And a few "new to me things" that I have never seen or knew there was out there. And have honestly not thought much about making bug out bags. Excellent idea!!! Thank you for sharing!!
Glad it was helpful!
Hello Pam,
Thank you for this informative video! So many folks talking about go bags or get home bags use that one line, but you filles in some important blanks.
If i may add:: several commenters have mentioned 'go girl' urinal. Some Walmarts have started carrying these in the camping section. Or you can find online.
Cloth menstrual pads are great because they are customizable. You can find makers of all types of shapes, sizes, and absorbency. From thong pads, to post partum, and extreme heavy flow, this is someone out there who makes them. Wet bags and pad wrappers(just large enough for one pad) are game changers for menstrual period away from home.
Menstrual cups have also expanded shapes and sizes now. One company I have used, MeLuna, have tiny teen sized cups for beginners or the very petite. They are shapes, colors and sizes for everyone including the flatter disk cups as well.
There is a thing as handheld bidets or peri bottles. These are great since it is a cleaner way to stay fresh. I found bidet heads for standard sized drink or watwr bottles. Makes it easy to travel with.
Hope some of this info can help those starting with their hygiene and bathroom kits.
I have to say this... I watch you, and, I think, what an amazing, intelligent, articulate, and, beautiful lady you are. I am like you in many ways, prepping, helping others prep, sharing information, seeking new information & knowledge. Im a very Self sufficient, and a diy person, as, you seem to be too. I am, also, your lunar opposite in other ways. There is nothing kempt about me. I am no make up, brush my hair, put it in a ponytail and go. A lot of flannel shirts in my closet. I build Federal highways. This being said, I find you to be a wealth of new information, and, ideas. In all of my years, helping others prep.. I never thought to tell ladies, like yourself, to pack a "comfort bag". Just a little something to make them feel normal, when life, and, the world around them, isn't. Thank you so much. I will definitely add this to my suggestions. ❤👍🏻😁
I really appreciate your comments and the way you compared and contrasted our two ways of doing things. I love diversity and think we can always learn new things from each other. You are very kind--thank you.
@@RoseRedHomestead Agreed 100%. I waa born into a survivalist/prepper family, and. I will never pretend to know everything. Not even close. I learn new things every day. You are a great blessing to us all. Thank you for all that you do. ❤
Brilliant! Again.... I can't believe I missed this one. This is such very useful and important info. I hope more preppers create videos on this topic, these things need to be discussed more openly.
Thank you Pam. Peace and love from N.W. Ontario
You are very welcome. Glad it was useful.
Thank you so much. You are such a blessing. I absolutely love your videos. You are an excellent teacher.
Wow, thank you!
Pam, you have dealt with this critically important subject in a forthright, caring and very practical way. I've watched so many prepping videos done by men and ive created my bug out bag around their framework. After seeing your video I plan on now making room for a little make up and perfume etc. to make me feel confident if and when a need arises. Thankfully, being post menopausal i no longer need those supplies. Im not faulting the men, I just want to express appreciation to you.
Wow, thank you!
This is wonderful idea for a tiktok challenge that promotes positivity 👏
Interesting idea.
Thank You for being brave enough! Yes we have come a long way in this department haven't we!
We absolutely have! Thanks for your comments.
WOW!!! What a wonderful comprehensive detailed video. Thank you so much for covering those things that others do not. I learned so very much. Thank you again!!!
Thank you for watching our channel.
You are absolutely amazing! I hope all of us can learn here. Especially about drinking water. I’m from San Francisco and earthquake Loma Prieta. It was an emergency
Lanky: Thank you. Jim
Great idea on the coin towels! I am adding them and a couple compressed beach towels to my stash...Thank you!
Thank you so much for this information! I'm an older woman so I was unaware of some of these products too. But i have 2 granddaughters, 12 and 7, and they keep bugout bags at my house too. Oldest has started menstruation. Very, very good information to know! I would not have thought of some of this for my girls! Thanks so much! Love your channel ❤
You are very welcome. I am so glad you found this useful.
Thank you so much for this video.
It is refreshing (pun intended) to have a direct and frank discussion available on hygiene. So many folks dance around the subject as if is taboo. I am starting my own adventure into going toilet paper-¬less (think bidet and drying cloths) disposable diapers and paper towel-less at home. We have become SO dependent on everything being disposable.
Kris in Orlando
Thanks for sharing your information and I wish you the best of luck in your non-disposable campaign! I am old enough to remember the days of no disposables for diapers, kitchen towels, etc. You are brave to include TP in your campaign! I admire that.
You'll love the bidet! We switched to a bidet during the TP shortage last year and I made some drying cloths. We love it! Toilet paper now feels dirty in comparison! But we keep TP around for situations like a water outage.
Your video made me think of women in war zones, women in Ukraine. I hope that through their ordeal they can have something to care for themselves. Your channel is so instructive and important. I appreciate the open talk about this important subject. TH-cam should be about teaching useful and correct information, too bad it is not the case for many youtube channels. You provide an important public service, thanks.
I know this is 3 yrs old but wanted to thank you for the time you took to provide this information !💞
I bought me some reusable washable pads for my emergency preps. Thank you for covering this subject ❤️
You are welcome.
Your video gave me a lot to think about. I have never considered being prepared in this way. I only thought about food for the family and pets. Thank you.
You are so welcome. This video is a couple of years old, I think, but for some reason is enjoying a bit of a comeback. Several women have suggested I repost it so it will be more visible on our channel. I appreciate your commets.
You are marvelous, Dr Pam! This is critical info and handled so well. Thank you for this video full of vital information. You, dear lady, are a Class Act! 🥰. I’m sharing this with the women in our family.
Professor, well done! You have a new subscriber. Both my Grandparents were Professors at the UofA. My parents were State Department. You had me in learning mode asap! However, I have a true story for you. Three things you should know first. Mother was British. She grew up during WWII and was in the Blitz. Mother was not only a trained surgical nurse but her Grandmother was a natural healer. Mother used both. Lastly, I grew up all over Africa, the Middle East, Far East and Asia in the 60's, 70's and early 80's. Now the story. Summer of 77, I was 17. My brother was 22. Mike and I were doing a motorbike roadtrip up California to Canada. Mike did most of the driving mainly because I am 5ft and he is over 6'1. I didn't get hit by bugs if he drove. One day we came around a curve and there was a bad accident, multiple cars. It must have just happened! Mike pulled his bike right into the medium. We both had personal med kits but they would not last long. Thank God we weren't the only ones there to help. Someone had already gone to get help. Mike looked at me and said, " your the knowledge, I'm the muscle, tell me what to do". Mother's years of teaching came out. Thankfully no one was killed but there was a lot blood and broken bones. Sticks, magazines, cloths and tape took care of broken bones. The blood was a different story. We were in a grassy area. I looked around and sure enough there was the "weed" mother had used many times. Lamb's ear! It helps to stop bleeding. The soldiers used it in WWI and WWII. Lamps ear, my sanitary pads and torn clothes to hold it in place. I am happy to say they all lived and a couple would not have made it. The EMT and the ER Doctors wanted to meet Mike and I. Wanted to know how? Mike and I looked at them and said the only thing we could. "Mother". Pass the knowledge on.
D: Here, here! I know what it was like to do a lot of moving as a kid. My father was in the Navy for 20 years (a carrier navigator in the Pacific Theater) and we moved every 2-3 years: Up and down the East and West coasts, Hawaii (Pearl Harbor), and Panama. It sounds like your mother and grandmother taught you and your brother well and to be prepared with your first aid kits and use alternate methods for caring for others in emergency/accident situations. (I cringe to think what it was like during the Blitz). Thank you for sharing your experiences and subscribing to our channel. Take care and be safe. Jim
This is the most inclusive video I have ever seen. I just love how thorough you are Rose. As I've said before you're a diamond that shines brightly among the many thousands doing videos on the various types of preparedness we all need to think about! 💎🌹
Much love from a Texas Granny.
Wow, thank you so much. I really appreciate your compliment!
Thank you so much for posting this I was just make a list of what I need to get and I was missing a few items on my list
That bathroom bag idea I love
I have little girls and I just ordered toilet seat covers and I plan on making a bathroom bag to keep in the car for when we go out to restaurants I have seen really nasty bathrooms not the restaurants fault but just the people that use them don’t clean up after themselves
Just nasty things
So this idea is fabulous I was just wondering why I haven’t thought of it
Glad it was useful for you! Thanks for watching.
Excellent dignified coverage of the whole gamut of personal hygiene in all kinds of situations. Great presentation.
I honestly wish i had a strong female resource like you in real life to learn from.
Thank you so much. I appreciate that.
