The present disclosure discloses a parturition mat (100) for absorbing and holding fluid wastes and solid wastes expelled from a patient during parturition. The parturition mat (100) includes a permeable layer, a first impermeable layer defining a first pocket and an elongated film (18). A second impermeable layer is disposed at least partially within the first pocket to sealingly hold the fluid wastes therewithin. The elongated film (18) enables covering at least a portion of the pelvic region of the patient during parturition. The parturition mat (100) reduces the time required for cleaning and sanitizing the delivery table, thereby providing a hygienic medical environment.
