If you scroll to the bottom of the posts page, there is a link to a page with all the acronyms. Took me a while to find it and spent my first few times in this page trying to guess! Hope that helps x

Hi RachG15. When you get onto fertility fairness uk posts, scroll all the way down till you get to "view all posts" and click on it. You will go to the top again, then look over to the right to the "pinned posts" list, and click on "what do the abbreviations mean"- sorted - I hope! Diane

Brilliant Cinderella5 ! My phone does the same thing as Hidden in that it just keeps scrolling through never ending posts so there is no "bottom of the page". I know most of the abbreviations anyway but it was interesting to have a look through them all xx
