Hi everybody, I was just wondering if anybody could list what all theabbreviations stand for? Im a little confused about some of them!!

Ill also introduce myself on here, basically I cant wait to have children, but am hopefully planning to fall pregnant in December, if all goes to plan, and I cant help but have a peak on here to see how everyone is doing and read everyone's advice!
