TTC Dictionary

Hi girls,

So, I must admit that I'm the dumb girl in the class for the moment. As I'm obviously not TTC and never have been close, Im honestly lost as to the many acronyms floating out there. Could you guys give me a glossary?

BFP
DPO
LP
CM

I'm sure there's more that I just skim over and go "ok, no idea what that is but can generally understand what's going on." Smile

Thanks!!

Re: TTC Dictionary


  • BFP = big fat positive (pregnancy test)
    DPO = Days past ovulation
    LP = luteal phase
    CM = cervical mucous

    I always had to look stuff up or google it when I first started thinking about TTC Smile 

    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • I did know BFP somehow stood for a positive test but lost the actual acronym letters.

    Thanks! :)

  • OH my gosh, Maria!! That is OVERWHELMING... oye, so much to learn when you get pregnant, lol. Thank goodness it's a long way off for me...
  • All you really need to know is egg+sperm=baby (and how to get them together) and what your doctor tells you.

  • Lol... well, I know the logistics of that, lol... but it'll be a while before my egg meets any sperm, hehe. :)

    Thanks though! Hopefully I'll be able to decode some of the posts a bit better. Sometimes I'm like, "hmmm, not super sure what she's saying but she sounds happy so I'm happy for her!!!" Big Smile

  • Pretty proud of myself. I knew most of them on the bump list. Nice...
