CD is Cycle day you start counting your cycle day one on the day you have full red flow (period) and OD is Ovulation day DPo is days past ovulation.

CD is Cycle Day
DPO is Day(s) Past Ovulation

When was the first day of your last period? From the first day that you started that is Cycle Day (CD) 1. And depending on when you ovulated that will tell you how many Days Past Ovulation (DPO) you are.

Anything else just let me know :)

oh yeah.. and I love pregnology.com and mymonthlycycles.com Check them out! GL

CD is cycle day. CD1 is the day AF (Aunt Flo) shows up. DPO is days past ovulation. 

I'm new to the group, so I'm not sure if there is a post floating around with all the acronyms. If not, there should be :)

 CD- cycle day, DPO- days post ovulation

The day you start you period is CD 1 and count until the first day of ur next period. Most women are 28 days in a cycle. DPO is when you ovulate, you count the days after you ovulate till u get you period or your Positive HPT. So if you ovulated on the 10th, you would be considered 3 DPO today and so on. Good luck, I hope this helps!
