Yet another CM question

Sometimes I notice that I have this CM that is not clear, it is yellowish but it still is egg white consistency, stretchy and all. It looks like creamy CM mixed into eggwhite. What would I classify this as? I am having some today and according to FF I am 3DPO. I wish I had not already packed up all of my books!

Thanks ladies!

Hey Kim,

Seems like I've always heard to record the most fertile CM you get in a day. If you're showing some EW then I would put EW. Is it possibly left overs from a BD, ( sorry just asking, cause it does look a lot like EW) If you're not sure, don't put anything down for today's CM and check it again tomorrow. GL to you and HTH!!!!

Hi Kim,

When CM encounters oxygen it turns it a yellowish color, so if you're looking at CM that's say in your panties, then a yellowish color is probably due to it having been mingling with O2.
