Newbie... Acronyms?

Hi Ladies,

DP and I have decided to TTC. I’ve been off the pill about two weeks now, so we’ll see how it goes.

I’ve used MN for a while but first time on the Conception forum. I just wondered if anybody would be so kind to explain all of the acronyms?

Also, any top tips of best things to do/take whilst TTC would be really welcome ❤️

POAS - pee on a stick
HPT - home pregnancy test
OPK - ovulation predictor kit
BD - bedroom/baby dance
BBT - basal body temperature (used for charting)
EWCM - egg white cervical mucus

Take a prenatal vitamin and have lots of sex!

Oooo I've learnt something! I've been using MMC thinking it was managed miscarriage... I assumed it was when you had medical help to pass the fetus rather than letting nature take its course... which in hindsight means some of my posts may not have made sense!
