Does anyone switch their Fitbit from wrist to wrist?

I used to wear mine on my non-dominant wrist always, and always got sleep efficiency ratings in the 50's or 60's. Never higher than 73.  I got a new purple Charge HR a few months ago and it gives me big red marks all of the time (the last one, a black Charge, didn't do that). I decided to switch it to the other wrist occasionally to help my skin. I was surprised to find that I get much higher efficiency ratings when I wear it on my dominant wrist.  This leads me to believe that I move one arm a lot more than the other.  I do know that I often wake up to find my left arm is up, for whatever reason (just from the elbow, not the whole arm).  

Has anyone else noticed a difference in stats when you switch wrists?

I switch hands too but never monitor the stats.

I switch hands bc of my work and also bc my wrists feel clammy if I don't. I work with infants and I almost always hold a child with their head in my non dominant hand, which is where I first thought I should be wearing it. But if I go to put a baby in their crib like that it's too rough on their necks and heads and wakes them up. So I wear it on my dominant hand during the day and at night after I shower, I switch sides. But now I'm curious to see if the numbers would differ much.
