Abstract:

A diaper accessory including a non-woven fibrous absorptive layer adapted to absorb and retain waste expelled by an infant that is not captured by the disposable diaper. The diaper accessory also includes a water resistant layer positioned adjacent to the non-wove fibrous layer. Attached to the water resistant layer is an adhesive layer that is used to secure the diaper pad to the article of clothing worn by the infant. The adhesive layer is covered by a release liner. The release line is removed prior to using the diaper pad to expose the adhesive layer. The diaper pad can be coupled to the disposable diaper or can be used in combination with a disposable diaper to capture waste created by the infant. The diaper pad is modular, in that it includes a plurality of removable strips that allow portions of the diaper pad to be removed to allow for sizing of the diaper pad to the infant.
