You'd think I'd know this by now...but this one has me 
When I checked CP I noticed that my CM is thin and feels like watery CM, but it's mostly white looking like creamy CM. It's not sticky, not lotiony, it's just thin. What would you mark this as?

There is clearness...and it does feel wet. Not quite as wet as watery, not as lotiony as creamy.

I'd go with watery. Someone once said it's more important how it feels than how it looks...and also just based on the FF rule to record the "most fertile" one if you have a mixture. GL!

Hey Michelle, I wondered the same thing! I had a quite a bit at the end of this last cycle and I wasnt sure of what to call it. It was kind of milky... thinner than creamy but wouldnt know if it would classify as watery and it was clearish/white-ish. Good luck, I would guess that watery would be the closest!

Always go with how it feels over how it looks.
Based on your description... I'd mark it as Watery.

Agreed. From everything I've read, you should mark how it feels, when the feel and color don't agree. Watery!

Thanks girls! I'll definitely mark it as watery...I'm expecting FF to take away my crosshairs when I do. That's ok though...cause if I'm not pregnant yet, that means there is still a chance with this cycle!

I would probably go with watery too. If it feels lubricative then that is a good sign.

Thanks, Patty, I hope I get some clarity soon as well. But whatever is going on, DH and I are going BD like crazy just in case! (And I'm seriously going to order OPK's, I just don't know what kind yet.

You know, what's really funny to me is that while you don't know any more than I do as to what to record that is, it really does help to know that I'm not alone in still being confused by this stuff! And also it helps to know that I'm not the only one who's experiencing these things. So I always appreciate input from someone, even if it's just to say, "I don't know what it is, but I know what you are going through/how you are feeling".  Thank you.
