To provide a disposable diaper which hardly stimulates a skin of a wearer in wearing while maintaining flexibility and is expected to reduce skin troubles such as redness of the skin, eczema, rash, and irritations.SOLUTION: In a diaper 1, at least a back side part B has a structure in which plural sheets of non-woven fabric are laminated in a site that is not overlapped with at least an absorber 4, and an expanding and contracting flap part in which an elastic member is arranged in a stretched state in a lateral direction Y is included. The expanding and contracting flap part includes a hydrophilic region 60 extending in the lateral direction Y and a non-hydrophilic region 61 adjacent to the hydrophilic region 60 on a skin side nonwoven fabric 23 positioned on a skin contact surface side with respect to the elastic member. On one or both of the hydrophilic region 60 and the non-hydrophilic region 61, a plurality of embossment parts 65, 66 in which constituent fibers of the skin side nonwoven fabric are fused are formed. The total areas of the embossment parts 65, 66 per unit area are different between the hydrophilic region 60 and the non-hydrophilic region 61.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4【課題】柔軟性を維持しつつ、着用時に着用者の肌を刺激し難く、肌の赤み、湿疹、汗疹、かぶれ等の皮膚トラブルを低減することが期待できる使い捨ておむつを提供すること。【解決手段】おむつ1は、少なくとも背側部Bが、少なくとも吸収体4と重ならない部位に、複数枚の不織布が積層された構造を有し且つ弾性部材が横方向Yに沿って伸長状態で配された伸縮性フラップ部を有している。伸縮性フラップ部は、弾性部材よりも肌当接面側に位置する肌側不織布23に、横方向Yに延在する親水領域60と、該親水領域60に隣接する非親水領域61とを有している。親水領域60及び非親水領域61のうちの一方又は双方に、前記肌側不織布の構成繊維が融着したエンボス部65,66が複数形成されている。親水領域60と非親水領域61とは、単位面積当たりのエンボス部65,66の総面積が異なっている。【選択図】図4
