Oh my fucking God a monster crawled across the baby as I was reading a book (called Unfollow Me, not ironic and recommended it's really good) and the light of the phone mean I saw this horrible hairy cunt crawl over my baby.

Squashed it dead and fuck where is the justice in life.
Drama all round.

Pray for us.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think I might have died.

Good lord, what a whooper - luckily the baby won’t remember!

Chickychoccyegg · 08/08/2019 22:17

omg, that is massive, i probably would've been crying and panicing

curlykaren · 08/08/2019 22:17

It's fuckin ENORMOUS. That gave me the jitters. Bleugh!

Sugarplumfairy65 · 08/08/2019 22:17

Why in earth did you have to kill it? Couldn't you have just put it outside?

WonderTweek · 08/08/2019 22:17

I would have pissed my pants if I were you. I'm not even that bothered by spiders but that is a monster!

NoProblem123 · 08/08/2019 22:17

UGHHH !

The stuff of nightmares !!

PeevedNiamh · 08/08/2019 22:18

I will never understand why people kill things uneccessarily. Nits yep. Wasps yep. Fleas yep. Spiders not so much 😢

StepAwayFromGoogle · 08/08/2019 22:18

You're still alive. That spider is most definitely not.

Outnotdown · 08/08/2019 22:18

EWW!!!!!!!! JeeesusShock

Butchyrestingface · 08/08/2019 22:18

I’m struggling to feel much sympathy given that you killed the poor thing. Soz.

AnastasiaVonBeaverhausen · 08/08/2019 22:18

I read your OP and was commencing cats bum that you killed a spider as I can't bear people doing that.

But then I scrolled down and saw the size of the damn thing.
Holy. Crap.
I mean. It was you or it. That thing would have taken your entire family.

DareDevil223 · 08/08/2019 22:19

Why did you kill it? It wasn't going to hurt the baby Hmm

RushianDisney · 08/08/2019 22:20

Eurgh look at all the juice that came out of it! The big ones are much easier to catch and put outside though, didn't need to be killed. I don't even remove them from our house, they help with our moth infestation so are welcome guests imo Grin

DownstairsMixUp · 08/08/2019 22:20

I'd kill it to. Gross

StarShapedWindow · 08/08/2019 22:20

In an ideal world the OP would have put it out the window but most people would panic and kill the spider if it’s on the baby.

BrillyPribble · 08/08/2019 22:20

Poor spider, just minding its own business.

Me and the baby have had lumps over our arms every day. I haven't thought much of it - they are single lumps. Not doubles like a spider bite.

That doesn't sound like spiders does it?

To those saying “why did you kill it”
I assume motherly instinct played a big roll.

Qwerty09876 · 08/08/2019 22:21

I remember the exact same thing but slightly bigger running all over my daughter in her crib when she was about 4-6 months old 😖😖😖

AnastasiaVonBeaverhausen · 08/08/2019 22:23

Hate to say it but the bumps, if they are like bites, are more likely to be bed bugs than spider bites.
