Here is my output using the switches you specified:

merwyn ~: df -h -m
Filesystem         MB-blocks    Used Available Capacity Mounted on
/dev/hda2               5483    1062     4137     20%   /
/dev/hdb1               2919     151     2617      5%   /home
/dev/sda1                988     211      726     23%   /jaz

Now try using the df command with no switches and see what you get. 
Mine says:

merwyn ~: df
Filesystem         1024-blocks  Used Available Capacity Mounted on
/dev/hda2            5615309 1087741  4236792     20%   /
/dev/hdb1            2990073  154801  2680647      5%   /home
/dev/sda1            1011810  215172   744365     22%   /jaz

The first ones make the switches display things slightly differently.
