Have you ever used ttc abbreviations while talking to someone in person? If so, how did they react?

lol, I was thinking about that yesterday actually! About saying 'BFN' or 'BFP' and imagining that most people who haven't had to ttc for a while would probably be unlikely to have a clue what that means!

But no, to answer your question....sometimes I do have the thought in my head and I have to make a conscious effort to spell it out the long way with people! The worse is 'LP'. I hate having to say 'luteal phase' - mainly cos I'm not sure of my pronounciation - but also cos that leads to another 'eh?' anyways.

Actually....was also thinking today about my sore boobs and post-ov symptoms and how weird it is that alot of women - either those not ttc or those who concieve easily - never think about it. I was thinking 'HOW can they not notice their boobs feel like this?' but then think - hmmm...did I ever notice before i first started ttc? LOL

I have accidentally used them with dh, his personal hated one is bd, he really doesn't like that.
I try really hard not to use the terms while Im talking with others. Of course we haven't exactly gone public with announcing that we are trying either.

I almost did but caught myself!
