list of abbreviations

Just wondering if there's a list out there somewhere. I have no idea what bfp means...as well as many of the others. :)

Re: list of abbreviations

  • I knew at one point what bfp meant, but I forgot - the P is positive.  It has something to do with the pregnancy test reading positive I think.

    There are abbreviations in the pregasaur blog link in redshoegirl's siggie - go to the tab on the top that mentions something about what they mean.

    Also, on the left on this page at the bottom, there is a link to Bump Board Glossary.

    hth!

  • thanks jen. i like reading all the posts but i'm often making up my own meanings...which are sometimes quite hilarious.

     You should totally post what yours are... maybe we can all make up new means for our old acronyms... not that I'm bored or anything... Confused

  • I'm all for making over our acronyms! 

    We adopted 'MH' when I went on my 'DH' rant....LOL!  And, I've said it before (and obviously I'll say it again!), I absolutely despise AF.  I'd do anything to stop hearing people refer to their period as a family member.

  • I never did figure out what the heck the "D" in "DH" even meant!  I've only ever used "MH" because it makes sense to me.  I like acronyms only when I feel they are common and people can easily figure them out.

  • hmmm not on the list.

    manly husband? maybe? lol

  • MH is my husband I'm pretty sure.

    I like DH because I think it is dear husband, but I like to think of it as darling husband or da husband (doesn't that sound sort of like Hawaii speak?  I can't even remember what that's called.  pidgin?).

    I like thinking darling husband because it makes me feel warm & fuzzy about him when I write it.  I know, too sappy.

  • that's funny. i always thought DH meant destination husband. which does seem kinda stupid the more i think of it. man, i wonder what other funny ones i've been making up.
