Fitbit Charge Strap Size

Hey all,
My husband bought me a fitbit charge back in September, it was a surprise so he bought a small assuming that Small was the womens size and Large would be for men. I'm quite petite and very small framed so I can see why he assumed the small would be the right size.
Personally I don't understand who the small is designed for ... very very slim people because it really is quite tiny and I don't consider myself to have large wrists but heyhooo....
When I got it was a reasonably snug fit, I'm was on pretty much the last usable hole of the strap. Since then I've gained some weight and it's now too tight.
I have 2 holes left to go ... but if I put it on either of the last two I can't click the strap into the loop so it falls off periodically. I don't want to lose it so I need to wear it on the 3rd hole so it can secure it with the loop thingy.
When I wear it on 3rd hole it's very tight, I know its supposed to be loose against your wrist with a gap, but I don't have one so it gets really sweaty and uncomfortable.
I know you can't replace the strap on the charge, I've looks for watch strap extenders but I can't see anything suitable.
Anyone got an other idea's?

I just got mine yesterday and I got a small because I had a small in the Flex and assumed it was the same. I can't get mine through the strap and I'm irritated! I'm looking online to see if there are replacement bands like for the Flex but so far I'm not seeing any.0

you can't replace the strap as far as I can see.0
