It often takes me a while before I give up, as to what the abbreviations on Mumset mean, when people post dilemmas I’m genuinely interested in. Anyone have the same problem or better still a list of what they all stand for

Just be aware that people also make up their own, and some on the list can be interchangeable so you need to interpret them based on the context of the post.

BF can be boyfriend or best friend.

GF can be grandfather or girlfriend.

DF can be dear father or dear friend.

DS can be dear son or dear sister.

I think CF is on there as cystic fibrosis. It's far more often used as Cheeky Fucker
