It stands for Days Past Ovulation also know as Luteal Phase. If you know the day you ovulated, you count the next day as 1dpo, the next day as 2 dpo etc.

Here is a link to my charts. THis cycle FF has not confirmed my O date yet but look at my other charts. Anything after the red line is DPO starting with 1. They now color the boxes Orange. http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/bec74

Here is some articles on DPO/Luteal phase
