(Fitbit Inc. is an American company headquartered in San Francisco, California. Founded and managed by James Park and Eric Friedman, the company is known for its products of the same name, which are activity trackers, wireless-enabled wearable technology devices that measure data such as the number of steps walked, quality of sleep, steps climbed, and other personal metrics. The first of these was the Fitbit Tracker. )

On Reddit's fitbit forum, user YoungPTone showed concerns about his wife's device malfunctioning in a post titled, "HR reading consistently high last few days."

He wrote:

"My wife's fitbit is showing her heartbeat being consistently high over the last few days. 2 days ago, a somewhat normal day, she logged 10 hours in the fat burning zone, which I would think to be impossible based on her activity level. Also her calories burned do seem accurate. I would imagine if she was in the the fat burning zone she would burn a ton of calories, so it's not lining up.

Im not sure if something is wrong with the sensor. Is there a way to reset or recalibrate the device? I'd like to try that before I contact customer service about a possible replacement."

Many responses came in about software updates, but one woman suggested that the fitbit is working fine -- and his wife may be pregnant.

"Has she experienced anything really stressful in the last few days or is it a possibility she is pregnant?"

Less than 24 hours later, it was confirmed. YoungPTone returned to the forum and replied,

"Im going to be a dad!"

"I just wanted to say this is indeed real," he added in a recent update. "This is real, the fear is real, the excitement is very real! I am a regular guy who was just looking for the community's help with his wife's technology issue (we've all been there, right?). Little did I know I got a lot more than I bargained for! Now I'm a regular guy who is preparing to have his first child brought into the world, God willing, in Oct 2016."
