Abstract:
1. A breast milk absorbent pad having a longitudinal direction and a transverse direction and comprising: a pad-chassis including a liquid-pervious inner sheet defining a skin-contactable side, a non-liquid-pervious outer sheet defining a non-skin-contactable side, and a body fluid absorbent core having a panel shape and interposed between said inner sheet and said outer sheet; and first and second elastically stretchable/contractible members respectively extending along transversely opposite sides of said pad-chassis in said longitudinal direction and bonded entirely to said non-liquid-pervious outer sheet in a stretched state and are capable of making said pad-chassis curve in a concave shape with said skin-contactable side inside under a contractible force, said first elastically stretchable/contractible members that are arranged outward of transversely opposite side edges of said body fluid absorbent core and extend in said longitudinal direction, said second first elastically stretchable/contractible members are attached along said transversely opposite side edges of said body fluid absorbent core in said longitudinal direction extending parallel to said first elastically stretchable/contractible members, corners of said pad-chassis which are formed at the intersection of transversely opposite side edges of said pad-chassis extending in said longitudinal direction and longitudinally opposite end edges of said pad-chassis extending in said transverse direction being folded to said non-skin-contactable side, and said breast milk absorbent pad being packed in a package with said corners in such a folded state.
