Yes, that is what happened. And it all could have been prevented has Pharaoh just granted God's request through Moses to let the people go. Heck, the first request was simply to let the children of Israel go for three days, but LOL nope. King of Egypt wasn't having it.
Time, and time again, during every plague God offered Pharaoh and end to it by just letting the Isrealites go. But he didn't, and all of Egypt suffered for it.
Though I do find it funny, that people only focus on children being killed, when it was all the first born of Egypt, that means every man, woman, child, and bit of livestock that was first born.
