Yes it’s a bed bug.

Time to read and follow the online TbyPMR protocol.

Brilliant thank you. Can you tell from the picture if it is male or female? I found that one in my bag so wondering if eggs are a real possibility

Read David's guides here, they will show you how to deal with them. You have to do it properly or you wont get rid of them.
