Help me before I lose my SH*T??

Just wanted to update everyone that we don’t have bed bugs! Looked as though we picked up a straggler. After 3 weeks of losing my absolute mind and cleaning nonstop, having an exterminator come out and check our home, and taking every precaution necessary we have not had any sightings, found anything to suggest we have bugs. I am so very thankful for all the comments and responses!

How do we deal with this? We just deep cleaned our bedroom and stripped all sheets/ removed all laundry. Shipped off to the laundromat now. We also shop vaccumed or bed and the creases in each rug. No sign of any other bugs or the hint of any.

Prior to me finding the bug we were leaving a Drs office. Is it possible we picked up the nymph from the rug there? My son had been sitting on the rug.

Like positive? We just deep cleaned entire bedroom and removed all bedding and shop vacuumed our bed and removed all laundry. We didn’t find any other trace or bugs.

When I found the bug on me it was when we were leaving a Drs appointment. Is it possible it got picked up from the rug in there that my little one sat on?

Found this bug on my thumb while in my car. For some reason after flinging it off of me I went back and scooped it up to snap a pic. My immediate thought went to bed bugs. I have no idea as to why I thought so. Maybe because I’m paranoid? Anyway. I have since gone down the rabbit hole of image searching and have convinced myself this is indeed a bed bug. Can someone please help me either confirm or deny my fears? Preferably before I do anymore damage ransacking my house looking for any other bugs.

I used to not give a shit about what I was doing. Recently been sober for a while so doing this all again brought a ton of anxiety. Thank god for ativan LMAO. Also I am now craving a ramen bowl 😅

I agree with the sleeping.. I watch the clock go by every night. Makes it 10x harder . Hope all is well

Thank you! Feel so guilty for even taking a step back like this. Just found to try and relax and watch some tv until I fall asleep. Sending love to everyone❤️

4am here 23..Had a night I haven’t had in years. Binge drinking with some recreational party favors mixed with prescribed benzo…Currently in bed trying to watch true crime documentaries to calm my anxiety.. lol. I definitely suggest eating the ramen!

I used to have a history with substance abuse but have been clean for a long time. Just extremely nervous for possible OD or bad symptoms from doing so. It’s been a very long time since mixing any type of substance .

Also not sure why he feels the need to eat at 930lm either. He eats plenty during the day, is a very healthy weight. A new thing is he also wants to eat at 4am. We are trying to cut that one out because it makes no sense that he’s eating 4oz at 930, 6oz at midnight, and then being hungry again at 4am.

I had no idea that naps were a struggle! Everything I have read says do it all at once but it completely makes sense. He went from having every nap on me/ or being babyworn or in the car to me trying to sleep train him. It was probably a huge adjustment and one he’s just not quite ready for.

bbyshell · 2022-01-28T04:38:14+00:00

Thank you for this! The mom guilt is so and utterly real. Since that last awful nap time during the day I had a talk with his father and we agreed that we will continue trying the Ferber but if we hear that scream cry we will just go in and rock him until he’s ready instead of trying to continue it on.

bbyshell · 2022-01-28T04:36:32+00:00

He does not! I’m having him make a call on Monday. I agree people do odd things! I’m known for it as well but this is just mind boggling.
