"I'm a FTM who has an EBF baby. How many BM should be LO have a day?"
WTH?
Okay, I'll stop with the acronyms. If you've spent anytime in forums or comment threads on the Internet, you've likely run into all sorts of acronyms.
While there are probably thousands out there, since I spend most of my time in mom forums, I thought it was about time I put together a list of Internet Lingo for moms.
