midcycle bleeding and ttc...should I bd???

Hi all, Id appreciate any insight on this because we are ttc but unsure about bd right now. I started light bleeding enough to see when I wipe yesterday which is exactly 14 days after my last period. Im wondering if it could be realated to ovulation but not sure because my periods for the past 4 cycles have been longer than 28 days indicating that I wouldnt O on or around day 14 but about a week later.
cycle 1-43 days...1st after miscarriage
cycle 2-33 days
cycle 3-39 days
cycle 4-35 days
We are ttc but have been reluctant to bd due to the light bleeding wondering if its infection or something although I dont have a fever and feel normal.  I have made some diet changes and have increased my excercise amount in the past month but dont know if that could bring on ovulation earlier or not. I do think I had a yeast infection last week but seem to be fine now except for the light bleeding.  I really dont want to miss out on bd especially if this is indicating ovulation and nothing else.  Im going to the gyno this week anyway to get checked.  What do you think???

I AM EXPERIANCING THE SAME EXACT THING!!!!  I started bleeding on the 18th day of my cycle... I have very irregular periods, so i'm not sure if it's ovulation or what. i am using the clear plan fertility monitor and it indicates that i have been at high fertility for the past six days.....(started spotting when i wipe on the 4th high fertility day). I did a little research on the internet, asked a couple of people and it seems to be common  for women with long cycles to bleed during ovulation and is an indication of fertility which coinsides with my fertility monitor.  I never knew that cause it never happened to me. Now i'm in the same position you are in as far as sex goes (is sex bd?, i'm not used to these abbreviations).  We did have sex today but my husband got a little nervous afterwards. I'm going to call my doc for an appointment tomorrow as well. Please let me know what your doc says. this is the site that i found which explained it alittle better than others i had found: http://members.tripod.com/preconception/id37.htm
hope it helps... again, please keep me posted as to what ur doc says and how ur coming along. thx! and good luck!

Hi, thanks for the comment. Im a little suspicious of an ovarian cyst just because I had pinching about 2 days after my period ended and now this weird bleeding.  I hope not but I guess it could be anything.  The blood started out yesterday a pink color and is now red but very light and watery.  Like basically only seen when I wipe and only wearing a liner.  Weird.  I will let you know what I find out.  Keep me updated on your condition also.  Thanks!
