Hi everyone,
I am 32 weeks pregnant and new to this site. Can someone please help me with all the abbreviations. Such as dd, DH, DS and so on. I will probably be surprised at how obvious their meanings are but it really isn;t coming to me right now.

DH = dear husband
DD = dear daughter
DS = dear son
MIL = mother in law
DC = dear child
IMO = in my opinion
IMHO = in my humble opinion
AF = aunt flow
LMP = last menstrual period
There are just so many more... It is late here and my mind cannot even wrap around a clear thought right now (long day) so I am not the best person to continue this answer; however, I think you might be able to find all of the abbreviations in the archives.

lol, i have been reading this site for 3 months and another one during my whole pregnacy and beyond (12 months) and only just recently figured out what af meant. i knew it referred to period, but i couldn't figure out why AF? Always meant to ask:) I think that was the only 1 i struggled with. the rest i figured out pretty quickly.
glad there is an archive though, for any more i may not understand:)
