what does ds, dd and dh stand for

[2minny]

OK, I've been on here for years and understand that ds means son, dd means daughter, dh means husband...,but what does the "d" stand for??? Been wondering for ages

I've been keeping this open on another tab since I recently came across it:

Dear, Darling, or Disney apparently

The first D is for Disney.

The first D is for Disney.

Not always

For instance " I can't believe my DH forgot to make the final payment on our trip so we have to cancel!" -- the D does NOT mean Disney, Dear or Darling in this type of post-- I'll let you decide what it does!

When I type it, My thoughts are saying
"Darling". I only use it for Husband, seeing that I have no children, no sisters.

thanks everyone I've decided I think it's silly to us "disney, darling, etc" before daughter...so I'm rebelling, I will just need to spell out hubby, daughter, etc.....what a rebel I am

We won't kick you out for that!

Many internet forums use those so you may encounter it on other boards in the future. Of course if it is not a Disney board then the D would be for dear or darling. I have been on so many different forums for so many years that my brain actually uses those automatically. I have to be careful when writing off of forums (like emails to friends and family, or FB posts ) because I will automatically put DH or DD instead of their names. Really confuses my mother!
