Man, I really hate asking questions about CM, but this occurs pretty often and I'm starting to get frustrated with guessing. I figured I'll ask all you experts, and since I warned you beforehand, I won't feel so bad about my details.

The CM I chart directly after what I see as "definitely creamy CM" appears to be sort of a mix of creamy and stretchy EWCM. It's not all that slick, but it stretches about an inch or two. It's partially clear, but it also has clumpy white bits that are also pretty stretchy. None of it is slippery like you'd see/feel when you get aroused, and it doesn't really have semen-like properties. I could probably fling it onto the wall like a spaghetti noodle and it would stick (lol!) Maybe that's a hint that I should chart it as sticky? I get EWCM, but not entirely too often, so I know it's really not the same as that... but it stretches.

How would you chart that?

Not all EWCM is crystal clear and stretches for 8 miles. It can be super clear, have a bit of white, stretch a lot or stretch a little... Everyone is different.

But yeah... if it's at all stretchy, it's EW in my book!

That's just where FF gets frustrating because it has a pretty limited list of CM options to choose from. Just go with whatever seems closest. I would personally save "EWCM" for when you feel the most wet and slippery and call this something different to distinguish the difference.

You could always create a checkbox for your chart so you can use your own words to describe it.

It wouldn't be in the CM drop down obviously, but it would still allow you to make a distinction, ya know?

Yeah, that's not a bad idea. Thanks, ladies!
