PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an absorbent body that includes a water-absorbing resin between sheet members but does not include pulp fiber, thereby hardly causing the water-absorbing resin to fall, and to provide an absorbent article with the absorbent body.SOLUTION: A absorbent body 1 is provided in the absorbent article. The absorbent body 1 includes: a first sheet member 3 a second sheet member 4 and a water-absorbing resin 5 between the first sheet member 3 and the second sheet member 4. In the absorbent body, an absorbent sheet body 2 without the pulp fiber is folded back at both end parts E in a width direction x, and in both end parts E, the water-absorbing resin is not disposed between the first sheet member 3 and the second sheet member 4.【課題】シート部材間に吸水性樹脂を有しパルプ繊維を有しないように構成され、吸水性樹脂の脱落が起こりにくい吸収体、および当該吸収体を備えた吸収性物品を提供する。【解決手段】吸収性物品に設けられる吸収体1であって、吸収体1は、第1シート部材3と第2シート部材4を有し、第1シート部材3と第2シート部材4の間に吸水性樹脂5を有しパルプ繊維を有しない吸収シート体2が、幅方向xの両端部Eで折り返されることにより形成され、両端部Eには、第1シート部材3と第2シート部材4の間に吸水性樹脂が配されていない。【選択図】図3
