I put creamy cm to my chart in the morning, but in the afternon i felt little wetness And sorry tmi but after using the bathroom i realized this EWCM. It was strecthy , long but not too much like real EWCM.Since it came after pushing is it normal? What should i consider it?

I am horrible at CM questions. That is the one area of charting that I need to do some more reading on. Hopefully, somebody will come along and help you with this one.

Thanks Teresa, I just finished reading TCOYF book and still have questions

Maybe i should stick with overall CM during the day which is creamy.

Any Insights?

FF says to report the most fertile of fluids:

No matter how you observe your cervical fluid (with your hands, toilet tissue, or in your underwear, or internally if necessary) the way to record it will be the same. Always record your most fertile type of cervical fluid, even if you noticed more than one type of cervical fluid in a given day or even if it is scant. This is so you will not miss a potentially fertile day and so that you have a consistent way of keeping track of your cervical fluid from cycle to cycle.[/b]

The fullinfo is FF info on CM

I have been reading a lot of the Billings method (tracking CM etc) and one of the things I have noticed is there is a small mucus plug that forms several times a month (once for stopping sperm from entering before the fertile period, once after O) and as Billings states, that mucus plus is lost when the cervix needs to open (for Af or whatever). Gosh I'm not being very technical here...anyhow, I know that just before AF last cycle, I had a long stringy piece of CM that was slightly green tinged (freaked me out!). I think that was the clue that AF was coming because that plug came out. Now I could be wrong here but perhaps what you saw was that plug coming out as you get ready to O. I need to read up more (woomb.org, fascinating stuff there) but it's what I 'think' I saw at the end of my last cycle.

Regardless of that last theory, you want to chart your most fertile CM

They say to record the MOST fertile CM you have in a day. Even if most of your CM is creamy, if you have EWCM you are suppose to record the EWCM just in case.

Yup, record your MOST FERTILE CM.
