@BlueWolverine: I hardly ever post but wanted to respond because I had something similar happen last year and was really freaked out at the time, but it ended up not being a big deal.

In my case, I had a miscarriage in February, followed by a normal period in March. In April, right when I thought I'd be ovulating (though I wasn't tracking closely) I had sudden bright red bleeding with large-ish clots. It was heavier than my period, but only went on for a few hours. I thought it had to do with the miscarriage, but my OB thought that was unlikely since a prior ultrasound had shown no retained tissue and I had had a normal period already. I went to the OB two days later (of course I was on a work trip at the time!) and an ultrasound didn't show anything abnormal, and I was about to ovulate. I got my period right on time that cycle, and got pregnant with my now 7-week old daughter the following cycle.

I still have no idea what that bleeding was about. My husband is a doctor (though not an OB) and said it might have been a piece of endometrial tissue that hadn't been shed during my prior period. Both he and my OB chalked it up to "weird things our bodies do" but I was really freaked out, since I had never had mid-cycle bleeding at all before. Hopefully it's similarly no big deal for you!
