Question

Okay, so I posted on here awhile ago about being new. I have kinda just been lingering, not sure where I am at right now. But as I have been reading your posts for information (really helpful by the way!) I have some questions. What do the following abbreviations stand for?

BD
D&C
2WW
DPO
EWCM
OPK's
BFP
BFN

Sorry, this may seem silly but I have no idea!

D& C is a procedure when a missed miscarriage occurs
2WW is 2 week wait
DPO is days past ovulation
EWCM-egg white cervical mucus
OPK-ovulation predictor kits
BFP-Big Fat Positive

Re: Question


BD- baby dance- se xwhen you are fertile to conceive!
D&C- I'm not sure exactly- after a miscarriage I think to remove the tissue
2WW- the 2 week wait after ovulating until AF comes to see if you are pregnant!
DPO- days past ovulation- counting them until you can test!
EWCM- Egg White cervical mucus- the kind that is fertil and looks like egg white
OPK's- ovulation predictor tests
BFP- big fat positive on pregnancy test
BFN- big fat negative on pregancy test

Hope this helps!
