Hi,
I understand that bed bug bite reactions can change over time. At first I only had the delayed reaction. With my most recent (confirmed) reactions i was bitten on 4 or 5 occasions over a month. The last set of bites swelled up dramatically almost immediately to the size of a dime or a penny and itched so bad i woke delirious starring at the bites before i realized who I was.

Since i moved, ive only had flea bites looking reactions, sometimes i wake up with them. Its been a year so far and I have not had any reaction like that. My question is. Is it realistic that my reactions would be attenuated immediately after moving so drastically? My thoughts are that, no this isn't rational. i still cannot stop thinking it.

Has anyone experienced a change in their reactions like this while still having a BB problem?

I am getting bit by something. I pray it misquitos. They are size of a dime and swollen.

No rows of bites , with a chuck out of the middle like when my apt buliding had bb.

I have moved. Carefully and with the dogs giving me the clear. Now i was bit like 4 times yesterday and 3 the day before and i seem to be getting bit every day. Some i notice while out in the city, some when i wake up.
I don't know what i am being bit by. Do they always leave a row of bites or one bite? Everyone bites look different and with a delayed reaction, its is just all so questionable.

Praying it's not bb. because i have been free of bites for 2 months. One here and there, i thought were misguitos.. Now every day...
My place is small , and i live pretty minimully. Belongings stored clean in plastic still as they are for the winter. So i think, I would see or sights of them. i have to go into lock down again, it will be easy.
I already got rid of 28 bagsof belongings in the beginning.

They typically follow the "3 bites in a row" pattern unless their feeding is disturbed ie. you roll over, or scratch at your arm, or turn on the lights or something...
