Disclosed is an absorbent article manufacturing method that has a transport step to transport continuous bodies (second through seventh continuous bodies, for example) that include waistline regions (1A, 1B) corresponding to waistline members. In the transport step, the continuous bodies are asymmetrical relative to a center line (CL) in the transport direction (MD direction) of the continuous bodies and are transported while being held on at least a first conveyor belt (110) and a second conveyor belt (120). Thus meandering of the continuous bodies can be controlled.
