PLEASE help me find my phone! Pathetic but desperate!

[realhousewifeofnowhere]

I managed to lose my phone in my own home, in the space of two minutes. Without going into details, I REALLY need this phone. It's a very bad time to lose it.

I can't ring it because it's on Do Not Disturb.

I've searched high and low. It's going to run out of battery eventually and then I definitely won't be able to ring it. Please, Mumsnet, can you help me.

Under a bale of hay? Is that you Carrie, clearing up after Saturday's wedding?

😂😂 Ada, you beat me to it

Meant to be a needle you find (or not) in there, not a phone.

Loving all the bale of hay comments!

Brilliant 😂

Come on @realhousewifeofnowhere, we need more info about the bale of hay!!!

Have you plugged it in to charge?

OF COURSE it was under the bale of hay! Where else?!

@swapsicles

Use the find my phone from another device it should make a noise, alexa is set up to find mine too, I'm always leaving mine in odd places

You can do this ? How ?

Inside a pillow case/duvet cover?

Ah you've not left it under the bale of hay again have you??!

Under chairs / furniture where slipped through gaps

These guys are amateurs. I was going to say check under the bale of hay. That's where my phone always seems to be when I lose it in the house. Bloody bales

had the same thing yesterday. mine was under the pot of salt. (a big one)
back of sofa
fallen down between the cushions
fallen on floor and under sodfa
fallen in magazine rack and gone between pages
right in front of your bloody eyes and you are just not seeing it.
tangles in duvet/throw/blankets
put down somewhere on your route out of the room.
I found my glasses in my pocket after searching for them yesterday.
I also found my phone in my hand when I had lost it today, but to be fair I was up til 4am with a poorly child.
in the bathroom.
in the kitchen on the way to the kettle,
in the fridge
posted in some slot or other by a child. try looking outside the front door.

stuck in a cushion cover.

🤣🤣🤣

First place I'd check is under a bale of hay, if you've got one, OP?

Not sure if it’s been suggested by when on DND, it’ll go to voicemail in the first instance, if you ring back straight away... it’ll go through.

Is this a way of letting people know you have a horse? 🤔

To be fair I did once have 10 bales of hay in the kitchen when I lived with my parents. Mum was fuming, dad was "I'm not even asking" < steps over hay >

Have you found it yet?🙄

Lost my virginity behind a bale of hay many years ago 🤣

I lost mine this morning and ended up under my mattress somehow.. check random places like that! Under the sofa? in the fridge? I hope you find it!!

2nd poster - you lost your virginity this morning and ended up under the mattress?

I am always losing my phone and keys
So I bought a little thing called Tile and attached it to my keys
It’s brilliant because if I lose my phone I just press the tile and it rings my phone even if it’s turned off
If I lose my keys I use the app on my phone and it will make the tile ring 😂

I found mine being used as a bookmark yesterday

Hay-hoe at least you've found it.
