A disposable diaper including: an absorber disposed between a liquid pervious top sheet and a liquid impervious back sheet; an end flap portion formed on each side of the absorber in a front-back direction; and a lotion portion extending in the front-back direction at a predetermined interval in a width direction on a body-side surface of the top sheet, wherein in the front-back direction, the lotion portion is disposed in an intermediate portion between a ventral side portion accounting for 20 to 45% of a front-back direction length of the top sheet from a ventral side end of the top sheet and a dorsal side portion accounting for 10 to 35% of the front-back direction length of the top sheet from a dorsal side end of the top sheet.

An absorbent article and method of making the absorbent article are disclosed. The absorbent article having a topsheet, a backsheet, and an absorbent core structure having one or more layers wherein at least one layer is a heterogeneous mass layer, wherein the topsheet and the heterogeneous mass are integrated such that they reside in the same X-Y plane.

An absorbent article can have a topsheet layer, a liquid impermeable layer, and an absorbent core positioned between the topsheet layer and the liquid impermeable layer. The absorbent article can further include an exudate management layer in fluid communication with the topsheet layer. In various embodiments, the exudate management layer can be positioned on a body facing surface of the topsheet layer. In various embodiments, the exudate management layer can be positioned between the topsheet layer and the absorbent core. The exudate management layer has a first component which defines an opening for direct passage of body exudates into the absorbent core. The exudate management layer has a second component which at least partially overlaps the first component of the exudate management layer and further extends in the longitudinal direction of the absorbent article in a direction towards the posterior region of the absorbent article.
