    You really only need to test your CM a few days around O, that is the only time you'll get true CM. You want to be sure you are actually getting CM and not vaginal secretions which will always be acidic. When you start getting really creamy CM try inserting 2 fingers all the way up to the cervix and then pull them apart a little bit to "suck" some out (sorry TMI) and and then test just what is in between your two fingers.

    You could always try using an instead/moon cup to collect a bigger sample

    I apply what I am able to retrieve if it is a small amount onto a q-tip and test it on that.

    A q-tip is a cotton bud in the UK - not sure where you are?

    Be sure to make sure you're not actually putting anything in to the cervix as that can cause an infection. You only test EWCM as Carmella said, so hopefully that will be more abundant than your CM during the rest of the month. Not having much though, would be a good sign for a girl sway as it will mean lower fertility.
