Accordingly, when the diaper is unfolded for placement, the top panels become contoured to the shape of the infants legs to provide an improved fit of the diaper in the crotch and thigh region.
  • the backing sheet 32 provides a fluid impervious outer surface for the top panels 54a and b and a fluid barrier adjacent the side edges 24a and b to prevent leakage and wicking of the diaper in the crotch region.
  • the doubled back panels 58a and b underlying the central panel 56 serve as pocket means to receive and retain fluid runoff from the central panel 56, while the fluid impervious top panels direct fluid to the pockets.
  • an increased amount of absorbent pad is provided in the crotch region of the diaper for greater fluid retention without increasing the bulk of the diaper in the crotch region, since the top and back panels are retained in place by the securing means.
  • the four plies of the absorbent pad in the crotch region also provide greater tension of the diaper against the infants skin for a better gasketing action to prevent leakage about the infants legs.
  • the diaper may be folded in a slightly different manner, according to a method of the invention, as described below.
  • the pad assembly of FIG. 4 may be folded along a pair of longitudinally extending fold lines 62a and 62b, such that the fold lines define the central panel 56 and the pair of side panels 44a and b which are folded against the back surface 34 of the central panel.
  • the side panels are then folded along the longitudinal fold lines 42a and b intermediate the first fold lines 62a and b and the side edges 24a and b, with the fold lines 42a and b defining a pair of edge panels which are folded around the fold lines 62a and b and overlie the front surface of the central panel 56.
  • the top panel portions 54a and b of the edge panels are secured to the front surface of the central panel 56 and the back panel portions 58a and b of the side panels are secured to the back surface of the central panel, as previously described.
