A unitary, disposable diaper comprising main body structure having an outer side possessing a front portion, and integrated soilage-management structure disposed on said front portion and including (a) an initially closed, but selectively openable, soilage-impervious pocket structure (a) formed collaboratively by a region in said front portion and an independent, continuous, front panel component having four, perimetral edges only three of which are joined to said front portion, (b) having an upper, elongate openable end defined by the front portion’s unjoined edge, and (c) possessing a lateral dimension which substantially defines both the effective width of the pocket structure and the length of said openable end, said openable end being nominally closed by a slender, independent-component, substantially full-pocket-width closure flap which is manipulable to expose the openable end for access to the inside of the pocket structure, and (b) initially stored in said pocket structure, an ultimately closeable and sealable, soilage-impervious disposal bag structure having normally open and normally closed ends, deployable from the pocket structure, and thereafter employable to form a soilage-impervious disposal container, said bag structure being attached, in the overall diaper, solely to said main body structure, and at a single attachment point which exists between the bag structure’s normally closed end and a location on the main body structure which is immediately adjacent the pocket structure’s openable end.
