1 day prior to O, i need help!

Anyone experience ewcm and creamy white cm in the couple days leading up to O? This morning I checked cm and (sorry for tmi) there was ewcm, clear as day. A few hours went by and checked with tissue. It was still there. DTD couple hours later and there was white creamy cm. I'm sure there was still ewcm, but........there was the white too. Has anyone had this? Could the white be harmful to the semen?

Are you temping or using OPKs to confirm O? Could it be DHs mixed with yours?

Could it be leftovers from your partner? That can kind of hang out up there for a while.

Also, your CM can be different from vaginal mucus that you produce DTD. Maybe that's what's going on.

I am not using opk, we were TTA until a few days ago. Using withdraw method. And I only started temping a week ago so really the only thing I'm going by is O calendar and checking cm. It could be his mixed with mine but the first time I checked cm this a.m. it was white grainy and slightly watery, then an hour later there was a lot of ewcm. So I thought maybe they both came from me.

I thought that the ewcm could be leftover from his from DTD last night (sorry for the tmi) so I mixed it with water because semen tends to get sticky and ball up when mixed with water. But it kept the egg white like consistency. And I made sure to wait til this a.m. to check cm to rule out that possibility. What you said about the mucus produced to DTD makes sense for sure. I hadn't thought of that.

Also when I checked cm this a.m. and found ewcm I mixed it (sorry for tmi) with water because semen tends to get sticky and ball up when mixed with water but the ewcm kept its consistency. I made sure to wait til a.m. to rule out the possibility of it being left over. A fertility specialist said to wait twelve hours before checking cm after DTD.
