Cervical Mucus Guide?

in TTC After a Loss
I apologize if this is TMI, but was wondering if anyone has a good cervical mucus guide. I'm on CD10 and have what I think is watery CM, but there's very little of it and it's also just a slight bit tacky once it dries on my finger. But, it kind of looks like clear urine. Sorry if this is gross!

I'm trying to get into this whole charting thing while we're waiting until May. Had my first period post-surgery this month. Lasted for three days and then pretty much abruptly stopped with just scant spotting for two additional days. Not temping yet, but have been doing OPKs the last three days and so far all negative. I know cycles can be wonky post-loss, but just trying to get a feel for things while it totally "doesn't matter" so to speak.

Thanks!

    Welcome to the board of TMI all the TIME.  :)

    If you haven't already check out Fertility Friend they have a great FAQ and a free online "course" that goes into very detailed information about CM, temping, charting, etc. Many of us use FF to chart.  It also has a handy mobile app.  If you go through the course and take the quizzes at the end of each lesson you'll be an expert in no time.

    @ktlovess - Thanks! Agreed to the google searching. I tried that and then got a bunch of gross pictures of cervicitis, underwear, a woman in a cervical collar (wtf) and other stuff. I got scared/grossed out (and it takes a lot to gross me out) and came here! ;)

    Thanks @snegde @dajhughes @meladoriestar for the links and resources!

    @ktlovess LMAO just because you said that, I had to google it.

    OP - you've already gotten really good advice, so I'll just leave it at good luck.  Also, no such thing as TMI on any bump boards, I've realized.  It's pretty great.

    Do not google image search! I almost died. I agree with @snegde.
    I agree with you 1000 PERCENT. I made the mistake of googling this last year....I am still scarred. Barf.
