...and I need help with the acronyms! I just got most of the wedding acronyms down but am having more trouble guessing at the baby/pregnancy ones:)

Can anyone help?

There is wiki page somewhere with all the acronyms. You catch on pretty quickly.

Some of the obvious:

TTC: trying to conceive

NTNT: NOt trying not to

BFP: Big Fat Positive

BFN: Big Fat Negative

BD: Baby Dance....you know....

CM: Cervical Mucus

Any in particular that confuse you?

Check the TTC Updates sticky at the top of the babies board. It has a link to the Baby Acronyms Wiki.

Thank you both so much! I was getting tripped up on AF, DPO and TWW... I feel MUCH more in the loop now!

Thanks again!

@drakela2: Welcome! I'm a newbie myself, but I have found the babies board to be very informative & helpful.

I was going to write a post asking the same thing! I am pretty new to the babies board, and half the time have no idea what everyone is talking about!
