#$%^&*AU2009230764B220120726.pdf#####ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE In an absorbent product (1), a front pocket (26) and a rear pocket (27) are formed between a front absorbent core (212) and a rear absorbent core (222) and a back sheet 5 (23). A pair of side sheets (3) are located on both side portions of an absorbent sheet member (20) having an opening (25). Both absorbent cores are raised so that they should become apart from the back sheet (23) by contraction of a third elastic member (35) bonded to an inner edge (331) of a bonded part (33) of each side sheet (3). It is possible to keep the distance larger in thickness direction between the absorbent sheet 10 member (20) and the back sheet (23) in the vicinity of the opening (25) and fit a portion around the opening (25) of the absorbent sheet member (20) to a wearer.1/6 331-l I\Tj 331 26---- 241 a * -------3 32 323--- 3 34 I 3 2320 202 - 23 42 Tv-
