Okay, how do you tell the difference between CM and semen ? We start to BD 5 days prior to what we think is Ovul. If we BD at night how long the next morn before you can call the slippery stuff CM and not semen? It seems I don't remember on dry days to pay attention to this, so I can't remember.

One difference between egg-white cervical mucus and semen is that semen is water soluble. So if you put a little water on your c/m and it dissipates, than it was semen. Otherwise it is that fertile c/m you're looking for!

Good luck.
