I think DH stands for dear husband....then DD dear daughter....DS dear son etc. SAHM stands for Stay at home mom I know it gets confusing sometimes!

 

If you don't frequent message boards, I am sure it seems like you've landed on another planet.

Let's see:

SAHM Stay at Home Mom
DH Dear Husband, DD Dear Daughter, DS Dear Son
CIO Cry it out
BF Breastfeeding or the very confusing BM... usually that refers to Breast milk here...

KWIM Know What I Mean if IYKWIM If you know what I mean.

I can't think of any others right off the bat, but I am sure someone here will respond with plenty of others.

BTDT - Been there done that

PP - Previous poster or OP - Original poster

TIA - Thanks in advance

TMI - Too much information

HTH - Hope that helps

 

ETA???? Can't figure this one out.

 

This might help, also

FF = formula feeding/fed
WAHM = work at home mom
WTH = what the heck
OMG = oh my gosh
EBM = expressed breast milk
PITA = pain in the a$$

I can't think of anymore right now.
