dh - dear husband
ds - dear son

Have a look under the chat room rules forumn and you will find a topic posted by wenders which is titled ACRONYM/ABBREVIATION MEANINGS.

think it could get confusing
dd = due date
dd = dear/darling daughter..

I suppose it would be easier to tell once you read it in a text...
