I have a Fitbit, and work in the infant room at a day care. I feel my my step count from work ( about 10,000 per 8 hours plus an hour break) is awfully high seeing as I don't often leave the room and walk around.
Does bouncing a baby to sleep register as steps? Also when I pay backs I see the screen flipping through the menu options with out touching it.
Give me your insight! Can anyone else see a heart rate spike when bottles are due?

Depending on your fitbit model it can be tracking the hand movements as steps. i can't remember how, but you can change the setting to be less sensitive, which should bring the step count down to a correct amount.

@TiferMendos , I have two new granddaughters and I found that bouncing them on their mother’s exercise ball soothed them and gave me steps.
I did n’t feel at all guilty about these steps! The balls are sold as exercise balls, and I knew for sure that bouncing them was work for me! I think it is particularly good for core muscles, so I say, go for it! And take the steps where you can...

I think the point is... the numbers aren't correct. Some people, like my wife rely on accurate step counts to know how many cals have been burned.
OP- I found under settings on your device that you should be able to adjust the sensitivity level. Mine shows two setting options, again depend on what device you are using.
