Hi everyone,

Well I'm only new to all the ovulation calendars and stuff and I have no idea what half the abreviations mean! Can someone please fill me in on what cd6 etc means and opk and all those...I've been started to read some of the threads, but still can't work out what they mean. Thanks heaps in advance!:)

CD means cycle day, so the day you start your period (AF ) is CD 1.

OPKs are ovulation predictor kits, like a pregnancy test, but it tells you when you are going to ovulate

Hi there,
I am fairly new here too. I had NO IDEA what all these abbreviations meant. It was like another language! What I found was a thread that explained them all. http://www.bubhub.com.au/community/forums/showthread.php?t=5331

I had this thread open in a different window, that way I could refer to it if I didn't understand something. It was a big help. Good luck, hope this helps.

Thanks girls that is a really big help! Very much appreciated, and I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who thought it was another language!!!:)
