Confused about CM- question

I'm having some difficulty determining what is cm and what is semen. How long does semen usually take to come out. DH and I dtd on Sunday night and this morning (so about 36 hours later) I still have stuff coming out. (we dtd the saturday morning too and had stuff coming out all day sunday)


I'm not sure if it's cm though- I read to put it in water and see what happens. So I put it in and it floated but stayed rather clumpy. I didn't do a large sample. Also, when i tried to put it in the glass it totally stuck to my finger- it was stretchy and thick but I had a hard time getting it off. When I used another finger it just stuck onto that one. Does that sound more like semen? Could it be more "creamy" cm? I'm so confused by all this, help!

Okay, I just went to the bathroom again and bunch more came out. I did the water test again and it was hard to get off my finger but once it got in the water it sank, so that means it's cm? Why do they have to be so similar? ;o)

If you put it in water, and it floats...thats semen. CM will drop to the bottom and start to break apart. Hope that helps!! :)

If you put CM between your two finger it stretches while semen doesn't. Looks like CM to me.
