Feedback for pregnancy mode suggestion

[Van88]

I’ve recently been seeing the new advertisement for Fitbit, aimed towards moms (for mother’s day), depicting a woman with a positive pregnancy test in her hand. 

I find this very frustrating given that I am near the end of my second pregnancy, and Fitbit had no pregnancy setting for either of my pregnancies. 

I’m not asking for much. I’d be happy with turning on a switch stating “I’m pregnant” so that in the female health tracking section it won’t predict future periods. If it didn’t mind that I had lower activity, less sleep, and a higher resting heart rate, that would be great, but I know we are worlds away from that considering pregnant women have been asking for this simple setting for years. 

I find it hypocritical that you’d aim an ad at mothers, and not give us a pregnancy setting. To become a mother you usually have to be pregnant.

Yes and also change the weight gain mode to know whether its within the expected amount instead of acting like any weight gain in pregnancy is bad. I've not been wearing my fitbit in pregnancy due to no pregnancy setting.
