A water-absorbent sheet structure comprises a structure in which an absorbent layer containing a water-absorbent resin (A) and a water-absorbent resin (B) is sandwiched with fibrous webs from an upper side and a lower side of the absorbent layer, characterized in that the water-absorbent resin (A) and the water-absorbent resin (B) are contained in a total amount of from 100 to 1,000 g/m, and that the water-absorbent resin (A) and the water-absorbent resin (B) have the following properties: (1) the water-absorbent resin (A) having a water-retention capacity of saline solution (Ra) from 15 to 55 g/g; (2) the water-absorbent resin (B) having a water-retention capacity of saline solution (Rb) from 10 to 50 g/g; and (3) Ra and Rb mentioned above satisfies the relationship of the following formula: Ra&#x2212;Rb&#x2267;(g/g). The water-absorbent sheet structure of the present invention exhibits some effects that a water-absorbent sheet structure has excellent shape retaining ability even when the structure is thin, so that the water-absorbent sheet structure does not undergo deformation of the form before liquid absorption or after the absorption, and is capable of sufficiently exhibiting absorbent properties.
