I feel stupid for asking but, what do all the thread acronyms mean?? I don't see any of them listed in the glossary. I've been wracking my brain trying to figure them out! Maybe I've just been out of the lingo for so long.
I'm sorry of this post doesn't belong here, I tried posting in the New To The Bump forum but no one has answered.
Hey @regalmommy1! I will try to list the ones I can think of:
TWW thread=Two-Week Wait. For those who have ovulated & are waiting to find out if they’re pregnant.
WTO thread=Waiting To Ovulate. This is for those who are in the first half of their cycle.
*We call the TWW & WTO threads “the dailies” because you could post in them every day of your cycle.
TTCAL=Trying To Conceive After Loss TFAS=Trying For A Sibling IF Testing & Treatment=Infertility thread UO=Unpopular Opinions (on Thursdays) FFFC=Flame-Free Friday Confessions (on Fridays)
If you actually meant what do the acronyms mean within the threads, I will give that a shot too lol:
CD/DPO=Cycle Day/Days Past Ovulation WYDTGKU=What are You Doing To Get Knocked Up R/R=Rants/Raves CS/Q=Chart Stalk/Questions LP=Luteal Phase GTKY=Getting To Know You
The Ultimate TTGP Guide has a great list. See below: Most Common Abbreviations A comprehensive list can be found here. This link is found at the bottom of every page of TB (Community Glossary). Some TTGP acronyms often used or not listed there are… BBT = basal body temperature/thermometer BETA = blood test for HCG BG = Bump gods CD = cycle day CS/Q = chart stalk and/or question DOR = diminished ovarian reserve DPO = days post ovulation DE = donor eggs/embryos ED = every day EOD = every other day FF = Fertility Friend GL = good luck GTKY = getting to know you HIO = hump it out NTNP = not trying not preventing QFP = quoted for posterity/preservation/permanence R/R = rants and/or raves SS = speshul snoflayke (also used for symptom spotting) T&P = thoughts and prayers TLDR = too long didn't read TTA = trying to avoid TWW = two week wait WAYDTGKU = what are you doing to get knocked up WK = white knight WTO = waiting to ovulate
