Thanks to Lynn for this Frugal Baby Tip!
Believe it or not, a disposable diaper or sanitary pad can be used to catch blood from a severe wound and then taken to the hospital ER with the victim as a measurement device. The severity of the blood loss can be measured by weighing the disposable because they can actually find out from the manufacturer how much the product weighs and subtract that from the weight of the soaked disposable.
I figure you can just weigh a towel and keep it for such emergencies, though... just a thought.

About Catherine: I have been writing my Frugal Baby Tips since 1982, when I was a young divorced mom of two - for my baby product company, Born to Love. I am now mom to three grown up sons, and a grandma - and happily married to a wonderful man. We have rescued two little dogs, Denny and Dexter - and a rescue cat, Bella.
Taking care of baby and mom needs naturally, does not have to cost a whole lot of money! Money-saving tips on diapering, diaper washing, safety, sling and baby carriers, toys, clothing, nursing, menstrual needs, traveling with kids, and more!
If you have Frugal Baby Tips to share, we want to hear them! It might even get published!
