A method for cutting and sealing an absorbent member. A web (110) including a fibrous material and superabsorbent material is fed to a station. The web has a first surface (146), a second surface (148), a first side edge (140) and a second side edge (142). At the station (120), the operations of applying a superabsorbent material movement obstruction agent (122) and cutting the web into individual absorbent members having a pair of opposing cut ends are carried out simultaneously. <IMAGE>
