Still not on there.
The thing that gets me is that they used to have a pregnancy setting years ago when I got maybe my second Fitbit, but they took it off! I used it for my first pregnancy in 2014 I believe. But then I finally had a pregnancy that continued, I didn’t get my period for well over a year, and when I came back to log the predictions were way out on my Fitbit app. Every other period tracker allows you to put pregnancy in. It affects more than just your cycle length, calories go up for a start.
The worst thing was I lost weight during my pregnancy (15kg) because I was so sick with Hyperemesis, and I was getting weight loss badges on my app. Had to change goal to gain weight. But if it knew I was pregnant, that could all be put on hold. I feel like it’s going to encourage women to worry about weight gain during pregnancy.
They do have a pregnancy setting now, it’s under contraception though, which is very odd indeed. I don’t need contraception as a breastfeeding single mum by choice, and if that was an effective form of contraception I wouldn’t even be here, being as I was conceived while my brother was 7 months old and breastfeeding. I’ve set it, but I don’t actually feel like it changed anything material, like the calorie intake which I feel is more for breastfeeding than pregnancy.
