Ok. Can anyone help me out here.

I am new to the board and never got into posting on message boards...

but I LOVE this one because you ladies really help me out and help feel so NOT alone.

OK.. what do the abbreviations mean?
DH, LO (little one?) and all of the other abbreviations.

If someone could make a list for me and the meanings.. I would really really appreciate it!
MUCH LOVE FOR MY FELLOW MOMMIES:

Kima

    Step 1:  Change the title of your post.  It's offensive to a lot of folks, and there are plenty of other words you can use.

    Step 2:  Go read the Bump Board Glossary, bottom left on your screen.

    We don't really like the word retard here. A lot of people take offense to it so don't use that word anymore. Just a heads up before someone flames you for it.

    Use that link to help you out with abbreviations. There is another one that some bumpies made and they have it in their siggys but I don't have the link to it. It has abbreviations that we use that aren't on the main list. Maybe someone else will have it.

    you'll want to change the title of this. Retard or Retarded is not liked around here. Just FYI.

    There is a bump board glossary at the bottom of the left hand column.  And...be careful with the "R" word.  Might I suggest lame instead?  I'm not trying to flame you...simply to try to save you from a flame.  *looks around nervously for you*

    Just trying to help you out but first, I would start by not using the word retard.

    2 pieces of advice all combined together

    1. don't use the word retard

    2. Preggos generally isn't liked either.

    Good Luck

    Retard? Really? Huh? Absolutely ridiculous...

    ETA: I guess I'll also add (just to be helpful) that in your siggy, you could take the space out between the Bump badges and then they'll be right next to each other instead of on top of each other.
