I’ve become part of a new group and there is a new language to learn. I’m on both a pregnancy loss board and one about trying to conceive after a miscarriage. I didn’t really join any of these boards before I was pregnant, so there is a lot of catching up to do. I have to admit I hate all of the abbreviations. It is easier than typing things over & over again, but I just can’t do it.

Here is a short list of abbreviations.
