what does it mean when someone says a certain child is over the moon??

 

[ickle pand]

Over the moon just means delighted, e.g. Granny was over the moon with her birthday gift. It's not specific to children

 

[emmyb]

AHHHH i gotcha, thank you

 

[babyboosmummy]

what does it mean when people say and have in their signitures- 'cradle sleeping'?? really curious? xx

 

[ickle pand]

I'm not sure, maybe just that their baby sleeps in a cradle rather than co-sleeping.

 

[babyboosmummy]

now i feel stupid, im not sure what co-sleeping means either x

 

[ickle pand]

Co-sleeping is when baby sleeps in bed with their parents

lol the whole time i've been on bnb i didn't know this existed so i've been straining to figure out what half of them meant (with no success that is) i was sitting here and i didn't even mean to click on it but i'm glade i did, things make a LOT more sense now.

I don't know if I can suggest another abbrev for AF. But I call it TOM - Time Of Month

 

[ickle pand]

AF is the one that's most commonly used all over the net, not just here. I think that if you used TOM you'd have to explain it everytime. I use TOTM with my real life friends, we never say AF or Aunt Flo lol.

What does Vday mean?

 

[ickle pand]

V day is viability day. It's once you hit 23 weeks and there's a chance of the baby surviving if you went into pre-term labour.
