ABSTRACT:
An absorbent article, such as a sanitary napkin is disclosed which is designed to absorb menstrual fluid. The absorbent article includes a liquid-impermeable baffle, a first absorbent layer and a second absorbent layer. The second absorbent layer is positioned between the baffle and the first absorbent layer and has a higher transverse wicking rate than the first absorbent layer. The absorbent article can be visually inspected to determine if it is near its maximum fluid capacity before leakage occurs.
