Hi Mandy,
Abbreviations are commonly used throughout parenting websites, if unsure about any then you can normally ask the original poster (OP) what they mean as everyone is very friendly. There is a page on here somewhere about "abbreviations for newbies" but some of the more common ones are -
AF - Aunt Flo (nickname for your period/may also see "the witch")
TTC - Trying To Conceive
LTTC - Longterm Trying To Conceive
DTD/BD - Sexual Intercourse
DH - Dearest/Darling Husband
DS - Dearest/Darling Son
DD - Dearest/Darling Daughter
OH - Other Half
VBAC - Vaginal Birth After Caesarian
DPO - Days Past Ovulation
2WW - Two Weeks Wait Before Testing
HPT - Home Pregnancy Test
BFP - Big Fat Positive
BFN - Big Fat Negative
HTH - Hope This Helps
That's great, thank you very much, great help for the aged and out of touch lol
