To provide an absorbent pad for low body weight infants which can reduce a load applied to the skin of a low body weight infant, and which can suppress leakage of excretion.SOLUTION: An absorbent pad (1) for low body weight infants comprises: an absorber (2); a skin side sheet (3) arranged closer to the skin side than the absorber (2); and an exterior sheet (6) arranged closer to the non-skin side than the absorber (2). In plan view, the absorber (2) is smaller than the skin side sheet (3) and the exterior sheet (6), and the absorber (2) comprises a high polymer absorber and a liquid absorbent fiber, and a basis weight of the high polymer absorber is equal to or greater than 250 g/m.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1【課題】低体重児の肌への負担を軽減しつつ、排泄物の漏れにくい低体重児用吸収パッドを提供すること。【解決手段】吸収体(2)と、吸収体(2)よりも肌側に配置された肌側シート(3)と、吸収体(2)よりも非肌側に配置された外装シート(6)とを有する低体重児用吸収パッド(1)であって、平面視において、吸収体(2)は、肌側シート(3)及び外装シート(6)よりも小さく、吸収体(2)は、高分子吸収剤と、液体吸収性繊維とを有し、高分子吸収剤の坪量は250g/m2以上であること。【選択図】図1
