another cervical mucus question

Hi there....so I'm sure I've asked this before, but my flakey brain can't seem to remmeber. I've read that after ovulation, CM will usually dry up right before AF starts. And that with pregnancy, usually CM is still present and often times there is a lot of it.
My question is, what does CM look/feel like with pregnancy? Is it sticky? or more creamy, lotion-like? I've tried to look online and couldn't really find a definitive answer. So I'm hoping all you ladies that have already had babies, or are pg now would be able to answer me?
Thanks in advance for any feedback! :)

The mucus pregnant women have is called leukorrhea because it is milky or creamy. I have large amounts of a similar mucus some cycles after ovulation and it has gotten my hopes up a few times, but is nothing certain.
