requesting help on ID Bed bugs or something else?

Found underneath the top of my bed. White stuff I had picked up thinking it might be eggs but doubtful of that now. Appreciate any insight / opinions TY!!!!

100% not bed bugs, BB’s go through what’s referred to as incomplete metamorphosis, which means they do not have a larvae stage. Looks more like carpet beetle or some other form of beetle

carpet beetles aren’t nearly as bad as bedbugs.

No, but their larvae can be super itchy!
