Baby talk ?

I'm in my 30 weeks, and I need help from you :-) English isn't my first language,  it's spanish, and this is my first pregnancy. So, on top of all of these being new to me, I need to learn BABY TALK. In many parents magazines I see things like:
"my LO" wich eventually I understood "my Little One"  Any others abbreviations you can help me understand??? Thanks

Thank you, that's what I was looking for.
GxoK I get your point, but as jeralin said all I want is to understand what other Moms are posting.

She means probably to understand what people are saying on this forum. FTM means first time Mom. Smh means shake my head. Lol means laugh out loud. I don't think I know any others.

If I were you, I wouldn't use abbreviations for baby talk....unless you're just meaning via text and stuff when you talk to other people about your baby. I personally think it's alot better to use real, proper language in everyday conversation. Too many people think slang is proper english....like saying 'dat' instead of 'that'.
