OK, I am seeing "DH" all over the place - My DH this and My DH that - what the heck does that mean?

My first guess is Dear Husband lol, no idea why I think that.
 
Ahh, ok... So my intuitions were right.

Somewhere there was a list of abbreviations that are often used on the BYC; I can't remember where it was but here are a few (and if I've misstated any, my apologies in advance! :

DH = Dear Husband
DW= Dear Wife
DS = Dear son
DD = dear daughter
MIL = mother in law
FIL = father in law
SIL = sister in law or son in law
DIL = daughter in law
BIL = brother in law
EE = Easter Egger
SLW = silver laced Wyandotte
BLRW = blue laced red Wyandotte
RIR = Rhode Island Red
BR = Barred Rock
BO = Buff Orpington, Black orpington
NHR = New Hampshire Red
PR = Plymouth Rock
SG = showgirls
BCP = black crested Polish
NN = naked necks
DE = Diatomaceous Earth
BOSS = black oil sunflower seed

There are others, but you get the general idea.... many times you can decipher an unfamiliar abbreviation by the context in which it appears.
