FTM
Also called ftm, FTMs, first-time mom, first-time mum
FTM stands for first-time mom. Parents write it to say this is their first baby, often as they ask a question.
How it's said
Hey, FTM here with a 3 week old baby boy.
Hi all, I'm an FTM to a 9-week-old baby girl.
It's a rite of passage for most FTMs.
Who says it
Where it came from
It's parenting forum shorthand. Outside parenting spaces the same letters usually mean female to male, so guides to forum acronyms point out the difference.
