Semen Or CM?

Can someone tell me how to tell the difference between cm and semen? I know from what I have read that it can be hard to tell the difference, but that semen won't stretch. Well here is my situation. DH and I bd last night. Typically missionary position for TTC, but last night it was me on top since I don't think I'm in a fertile period. Typically this position doesn't leave much semen in me, but late today afternoon I noticed a lot of shiny slippery discharge. Very slick like egg white. Not a lot of stretch....about an inch. I ususally have a bit of cm...or at least I thought it was, but mainly I notice a lot the day after intercourse. Anyway, I know this is a lot of info.....but what is it....cm or semen?

It really IS hard to tell the difference....I have about given up. They say that cm will stay together and sink in water and semen will dissipate. Also semen will dry up quickly in air while cm will stay gooey. GL to you!
