<p>An absorbent article (10) and method are disclosed for providing side leakage protection for an undergarment and absorbent article positioning guidance for proper placement on the undergarment. An absorbent configured to fit the pudendal region of a woman and a liquid-impermeable baffle (16) are provided with multiple pairs of garment-attachment nesting ridges (32, 34) for receiving an arcuately shaped crotch portion of an undergarment. Arcuately shaped pleats on a bottom lateral side surface of the absorbent article form the nesting ridges. In one embodiment, a pressure sensitive adhesive in each nesting ridge provides force to support the nesting ridge holding the undergarment in place during use. In one aspect, the absorbent article provides three or more garment-attachment nesting ridge pairs. In one aspect, the arcuately shaped pleats are formed in a bottom layer polyethylene/polypropylene bi-component web sheet material.</p> |
