I am SO freaking out about this bug thing, so much so that I can't stop itching and feeling like there are bugs all over me. Which of course there aren't. But still.
But I've been looking up bed bug information on the internet to try to find out what we'll need to do if in fact this IS a bed bug infestation. We supposedly will have to bag and wash (in hot water) all of our clothes and all of our linens. And then we'll have to have a pest control person come, probably several times. But what just occurred to me is that it's not safe to be pregnant around pesticides! So what the heck am I supposed to do? Should I start everything this cycle and try to get pregnant and risk complications from pesticides? The whole thing just makes me want to cry my eyes out. I don't even know what to do. I am so scared about teratogens and all of that as it is and now we're going to have someone fumigate every nook and cranny in our apartment? What the hell am I supposed to do?
I can't even deal with this. I'm supposed to be making cupcakes right now for my coworker's anniversary but all I can do is cry.

Date: 2006-05-24 02:53 am (UTC)I just don't believe in things like crazy pesticides and this is really freaking me out. It's not just the pregnancy thing, I don't want to end up with some crazy cancer and I don't want my cats to get sick! I hate all of this chemical crap and I avoid it at all times and the idea of inviting these dangerous substances into my home - in the floors and the furniture and THE BED - is just so sickening.
