I've been lurking a couple of days and will probably go back to lurking for a few more months while I get the hang of charting. This seems like a great board though and I can't wait to get to know you ladies. I'm on my first cycle coming off BCP and didn't start charting until I got my BBT on CD 14 so my chart looks ALLLL over the place of course. I'm sure my body is still adjusting to being off the pill... we're TTA until I can get the hang of charting and I've been off BCP for a while.
So here's my first question to start it off: concerning EWCM... does it count as EW if it's whiteish? Otherwise it's slippery and stretchy, just doesn't seem clear. I'm on CD23 today. FF says that creamy will stretch some, but will break. TCOYF doesn't seem to say that creamy/lotiony will stretch much if at all. This stuff breaks after stretching 1.5-2".
Also wanted to say good luck to everyone trying!
Re: new here... and a CM question
Welcome to the board! It's definitely a good idea to lurk but also don't feel shy about joining in if you feel like it
To answer your question, yes, it can be whitish. You're looking at consistency over color. Stretching 1.5-2" without breaking is definitely EW.
This.
Welcome and GL.
