How can I log breastfeeding?

[Ladenisov]

I m exclusively breastfeeding my newborn, probably burning 500-600 calories over 24 hrs, is there any way this can be factored into my calorie expenditure? I have the Versa. Many thanks.

Hey @Ladenisov, welcome to the Community.

Congratulation on your newborn. Regarding your inquiry, you can add a custom activity like breastfeeding by doing the following from a computer:

1. Go to http://www.fitbit.com/activities to see your activity log. Start typing in the search box under 'Log Activities".
2. Enter any physical activity you find yourself doing often.
3. After adding the activity, there will be the option to customize the activity via duration, distance (if applicable) start time and calories.

I hope this helps, let me know the outcome.

Thank you
I've had a look but it appears I need to go into that link every time I feed. Is there a way to add it to the actual watch?

Thanks for getting back @Ladenisov.

Regarding your inquiry, there isn't any option to add this to the Versa. I took the liberty and searched for a request like this but didn't find any. Feel free to visit our feature suggestions board and share your ideas.

Let me know if you need anything else.
