Tons of creamy lotion like white and sometimes yellowish CM

I quit my birth control pills on June 4.  I got af on July 3rd (exactly 4 weeks to the day of my last pill taken).  Since af quit on July9th I've had massive amounts of lotiony creamy CM.  It has sometimes had a yellow tint to it too.  According to my ovulation calendar I was supposed to ovulate this passed thursday, July 17th.  Problem is, my CM HAS NOT CHANGED.  Has anyone experienced this right after their first real period after coming off the pill or birth control in general?  I still have the symptoms of being pregnant or PMS whichever you wanna call them and I have been constipated.  I just don't know if this is normal for me because I've quit the pill or what.  Can anyone relate to this CM stuff like this even if you were on the pill or not?  Someone please help!!  Thanks.

Thanks babydreams.  I'm confused because this starting happening the day after I stopped my lmp on 7/9 (or 7/10?).  I just don't think I could be pregnant unless i ovulated while on my cycle?!  But then again, it's probably just my hormones going crazy from just now being off the pill since i took it for 12 years.

There are websites that help determine what types of CM mean what, so you may want to do some Google work. Speaking from personal experience, the only time in my life I've ever had creamy/lotiony white-ish CM was right before getting a + HPT and during pregnancy, especially in the beginning..........

My CM is mostly white and creamy but like lotion.  It doesn't smell or anything.  I haven't had the clear kind that i can tell yet.  It's always the other.  Thanks for your input.


Anyone else please??!!

i was on birth control for a year, and when i stopped using them i didnt have yellowish cm, mine has always been clear.  you get the creamy lotion like right before the egg like cm, thats a sign that you are ovulating, the lotion like it letting you no your fertile.

It might help if you look up cm, it will giive you the stages and consistency of cm and what they mean.

Im sorry i cant answer about the yellowish color, not sure if thats normal or not.(ps it wont hurt to call your dr and ask them)
