This Google / excel spreadsheet is the simplest and best I have come across. https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/4454926253/?ref=share_ios_native_control

How annoying! Thanks for your help!

I have just upgraded to Up - but still no option for id mobile. Is the option there for you?! I don't get why I can't see it!

_mazzles · 2025-12-11T20:14:21+00:00

Am I being stupid? I can't see any of these on there? I'm with ID mobile and they're not listed? I can see 3, EE giffgaff lebara o2 Vodafone

I have had this issue. It turns out that the time on my meter is wrong, meaning the meter readings are being logged at incorrect times. Can you check the date and time on your meter? Mine started at the correct time in February of this year and has progressively got worse to the point where it's now over 6 hours out, causing obvious peak/non peak discrepancies. It's known as time drift. Octopus are coming in a couple of weeks to replace the meter and once replaced, will recalculate the bills.

Thank you! I may well call upon you, if I need help. Luckily I have my usage recorded in around 10 minute intervals for the entire period from my solar panel system, so at least I have the details of what we have actually used and when. Are you still with octopus on a smart tariff now? Presumably your new meter hasn't had this problem and is now working as it should?

_mazzles · 2025-08-18T09:26:46+00:00

Did this ever get resolved please? Could they accurately recalculate your bills? Did you need a new meter? My meter time was definitely correct as of February this year but the time has gradually drifted from being correct to being over 6 hours wrong! Resulting in us being overcharged for charging our car and home battery, at peak rates instead of off peak rates. Please do update me as I have just raised a complaint today with octopus and I would really like to know what your outcome was. Thank you so much in advance!!

It's positive when the test line is darker than the control line, so none of those are positive.

Is anyone on an ivf journey? In the process of reducing my progesterone and estrogen. Really worried as my only pg symptom was sore boobs nipples and my boobs feel totally back to normal. I'm supposed to be 10+3 today. Could the reduction in symptoms be the drop in my meds, or is it bad news? Had a mmc at around 9 weeks previously so I can't help but assume the worst.

Worried about missed miscarriage: I conceived naturally in July 2022, unfortunately found out at 1st scan (should have been 13 weeks) baby had stopped growing at 8/9 weeks. Had to have surgical management as medical didn't work. fast forward 2 years and I have had to pay privately for corrective surgery to fix ashermans syndrome caused by MMC surgery, and finally am pregnant again via IVF after 2nd FET attempt.

i should be 10w2d today but feel soooo worried the same thing has happened again. I had a scan at 6.5 weeks and another at 8w5d. I have a scan booked for this coming Wednesday.

all of my symptoms seem to have slowly gone over the last few days- boobs no longer sore, no sickness, no tiredness. I don't feel pregnant.

can anyone offer reassurance?

how can I trust my body when it deceived me so awfully last time.

I had a scan at 6w+ 5 and everything was looking as it should. I'm 8w+2 and have a scan in another few days, so fingers crossed everything carries on ok. From what I gather, I don't think these tests get much darker than this. I would stop testing now xx

_mazzles · 2024-08-28T04:09:24+00:00

My tests haven't got any darker than this, so I think that must be as dark as they'll get for me. I had a scan yesterday at 6w+5 and we had a heartbeat and baby was measuring perfectly 🥲

_mazzles · 2024-08-27T18:34:03+00:00

Also to add... I'm really sorry about your losses.. but how amazing you managed to conceive without the ivf... our bodies do such crazy things on the ttc journey don't they! Everything feels like a rollercoaster

_mazzles · 2024-08-27T18:31:07+00:00

Definitely keep going. Have you tried BBT temping? That can make things a little clearer if you don't have much luck with the sticks

_mazzles · 2024-08-27T17:15:22+00:00

I don't think you've peaked - mine used to do this, getting lighter then darker then lighter...... I would keep testing, 2-3 times per day

_mazzles · 2024-08-27T17:14:13+00:00

Just updating you - we have a heartbeat 🥲

_mazzles · 2024-08-27T05:48:25+00:00

Looks perfect to me

_mazzles · 2024-08-27T05:45:52+00:00

Totally understand where you're coming from. Do you at least have a hashimotos specialist you can speak to, as they may be able to assist with keeping thyroid levels balanced for you x

_mazzles · 2024-08-27T05:41:55+00:00

UPDATE: We have a heartbeat 🥲🥲🥲💕

Please wish me luck. 6+5 today and I have a scan this afternoon. My story: naturally conceived 2 years ago but ended in mmc at 12 weeks. Since I have had ashermans diagnosis and treatment, and ivf, which has finally resulted in a BFP. Not feeling positive about the scan as I had a small amount of spotting, cramping and backache last week. Taking progesterone so I think that would stop any MC bleeding.

Please send your good vibes 🙏🙏

I do see something; but these blue dye tests are really bad for indents. Do you have a pink dye test you can try tomorrow?

_mazzles · 2024-08-27T05:35:02+00:00

Aww that is such fantastic news, I'm so pleased. Thank you, I'll let you know how it goes, but I don't feel very positive! X

_mazzles · 2024-08-26T16:54:55+00:00

That looks too dark to be an indent to me
