Abbreviations - help!

I'm new to this and very uneducated about all this short hand!
Please could somebody explain what BFN, BFP, POAS, AF stand for? ...and any other abbreviations that I may need. I have come up with my own funny ones but I'm sure it's not any of those!!

Thanks
Emxxx

    Thanks Fiona.

    Sadly AF has dropped by tonight (clearly uninvited and not welcome) so that must mean a BFN for me!
