You do not write what size this bug is. This bug do not look like bedbug, because it has no segmentation (there is no part with the head and the abdomen is very rounded). It seems to me this bug is very small. I think this is a mite.
Mites have little to no segmentation, measure 2 mm or less in length, have 8 legs.

I think you have Bathroom mites, they have size about 0.5 mm bugguide.net/.../1428926. But there are very many mite species:

Mite larvae have 6 legs whereas the nymphal and adult stages have 8.

This looks like a water bug to me. Step on one and see if it is squishy.

Wood boring insect or tick.

It looks like a tick to me, but I don't know why there would be so many in your bathroom.
Do you have any wooden furniture in your bathroom?

If so, it might be a wood boring insect that is just hatching out now, all at the same time.
