A garment for postnatal women for absorbing postpartum bleeding and providing soothing effects during post-partum recovery. The maternal under garment includes an exterior layer having a waist opening and a pair of leg openings. An interior layer overlaps the exterior layer along a front panel and a rear panel of the garment. An upper perimeter of the front panel includes a V-shape, wherein a nadir of the V-shape is centrally positioned on the front panel to comfortably rest below a stomach area of a woman. The maternal under garment includes an adjustable waist band to retract as the stomach area becomes smaller postpartum. Multiple layers are disposed between the interior and exterior layer, such as an absorbent layer for absorbing postpartum bleeding, a cooling layer for soothing genitals during postpartum recovery, and an antibacterial layer for assisting with pain relief and the healing process after birth.

The front and back portions are joined in a first and a second side seam along opposing side edges of the front and back portions and comprising a stretch-bonded laminate web including an elastic film which is stretch-bonded between two nonwoven webs. The side seams are constituted by fusion bonds formed by laser bonding and extend along the side edges of the front and back portions of the pant-type garment. The side seams have a width in the width direction of the pant-type garment in the range of from 0.3 to 1.5 millimetres, and a thickness in the range of from 0.2 to 1.5 millimeters, the thickness of the side seams being perpendicular to the width direction and the length direction of the pant type garment.

An absorbent article may be constructed by printing graphics on webs used to form discrete components that are joined together at seams to form the absorbent article.

A method of making a laminate for an absorbent article is provided. The laminate comprises elastic elements disposed at least partially intermediate two substrates. The first substrate has a primary fiber bond pattern formed therein and comprising a plurality of primary fiber bonds. The method comprises forming densified regions in the first substrate. A perimeter of each of the densified regions is larger than a perimeter of each of the primary fiber bonds. The densified regions together form a pattern of densified regions in the first substrate. The method comprises adhesively attaching the elastic elements to the first substrate, joining the second substrate to the first substrate or to some of the elastic elements, and forming a plurality of rugosities in the first substrate by allowing the elastic elements to at least partially contract. The frequency and amplitude ranges of the rugosities result from the pattern of the densified regions.

The present technology relates to an absorbent product for attachment to an article of clothing. The absorbent product comprises a wearer-facing surface and a garment-facing surface opposite the wearer-facing surface. The absorbent product comprises a main body, wherein the main body comprises: a central absorbent core; an external envelope placed around the central core and having a front extremity and a rear extremity; a first attachment line located at the front extremity of the external envelope; and a second attachment line located at the rear extremity of the external envelope; wherein the first attachment line and the second attachment line are for attachment of the absorbent product to the article of clothing; and wherein the absorbent product is free of means for adhesively attaching the garment-facing surface to the article of clothing.

The present invention is directed to an undergarment with a double gusset and leak-proof layer and loops or straps to hold absorbent pad of all sizes in place. The gussets provide multiple layers of wicking and absorbent fabrics for preventing leaks whether used with an absorbent pad or as back-up to tampon use.

A pull-on wearable article includes a main portion including an outer cover, the main portion defining a front waist region, a rear waist region, and a crotch region extending between and connecting the front and rear waist regions. First and second extendable side panels extend between and connect the main portion front waist region and the main portion rear waist region to form the article in a closed waist configuration, at least a portion of each side panel being extendable between a relaxed state and an extended state. The article defines first and second side regions, each side region including one of the first and second side panels and a transverse region of the main portion bordering the respective side panel. An informational image is disposed in at least the first side region. The article may further include a texture feature formed in an outer surface of the article and positioned proximate to the informational image to form a composite image. Alternatively or additionally, the image includes a cognitively functional graphic.
