I'm Currently Feeling:  | I'm no expert but what i go by is this:
Stretchy/ EWCM = most fertile - clear or yellowly, stretches quite a bit
Runny/watery = fertile - can be cloudy/clear
Sticky = not fertile - bit like snot? 
Creamy = not fertile -can be yellow or like hand lotion
Hope it helps!
ps Don't know what it's meant to be 8DPO |

| I know sometimes when women are pregnant they say they have creamy CM. I was just curious as to which hormone it is that produces the creamy CM? | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling:  | Oh its so difficult as every women is different and gets different CM.....
However the experts say, that close to Ovulation CM gets stickier, and almost like EWCM, but you cannot stretch it without it breaking.
Just before Ovulation it turns into EWCM, and this is the most fertile time.
At 8 dpo, for some ladies it can start to dry up a little in anticipation of AF, or if you are pregnant it can increase a lot and become very creamy (this is how I was at 8dpo).
I hope that helps a little.... |
