NBR:I think we have bedbugs

BRUGGS10

So for the last 4 days i've been waking up with more and more tiny red bites on any area not covered when i sleep.  I finally looked these bumps up and sure looks like bedbugs.  DH and I went on a mini babymoom 2 weeks ago and stayed in a hotel, and my BFF was in town from NYC last weekend (which they have a bad problem there) so now i'm on a mission to find proof. I have tape all over my bed posts and rails to try and catch one for proof, and I'm sleeping with a flashlight so i can try and catch one in the sheets (since i probably will never sleep again until we get rid of them). This is not really what I need right now. At least they aren't harmful for baby but yuck!

Oh my god. I just died a bit inside. I can't imagine how gross that is. I really hope that you can get rid of them soon. (How do you get rid of bed bugs?)

Oooh. I'm so sorry. I hear it is a PITA to get rid of them.

Oh no!! I hope you're wrong... I've also heard you can look on your mattress and see if there's any little spots of blood on there.

Oh No! I really hope thats not it. This is a big fear of mine even though they aren't really common here right now. Keep up updated and GL!

Also, I've heard to lift the mattress to check. They will hide under there.

I have been told that a mattress cover can help protect from bed bugs. That is so scary! GL!!
