OK I been reading these posts and there are sooo many abbreviations a lot of times I have not idea what's being said.
Like efta, ds, dd (asuume daughter) and so on.
If anyone has the time and could fill me in I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

I just added another link to a full list. Looks like we have a seat list and a lingo list?

You'll catch on quick... I try not to abrevate car seats all the time... but I do get tired of typing Fisher Price Safe Voyage Deluxe... FPSVD is easier! ;þ

efta = Evenflo Triumph Advance (its a new one... I dont think it was on the list)

These always throw me too:
DS= Dear Son
DD= Dear Daughter

CPST is a child passanger safety tech
DH= Dear Husband

...just hang in there!

Ok I feel really silly - I *just* figured out what ITA meant! I've seen it and didn't know, and for some reason it occurred to me yesterday what it must mean, and I looked at the link above and I was right.

I just don't use abbreviations that much, I think. By the way (BTW), what does RAK mean?

I say have all the abbreviations in one place, but perhaps two different posts in the thread.

hrm, yes... I think that would be easier. Merge the 2 threads and have a list in each post.
