Cycle counter stuck at 0

Hi, I’ve just changed the battery of this MacBook Pro using the replacement kit for iFixit: MacBook Pro 13" Retina (Touch Bar, Late 2016-2017) Battery

All seems ok but in System Information I see 0 at cycle count. Already recharged and discharged two times, reset PRAM and SMC. The counter is still at 0. I’ve read that this can happen with some cheap third party batteries but I would not expect it with one from iFixit.

Should I worry? Is there something more I can do? Thank you in advance!

EDIT: It just moved to 1. However the age and manufacture date values seems to be from the original one.

Did it but battery age is still the old one. However the cycle count goes up so I think this is acceptable situation (second screenshot added).

Carefully power down your system and then disconnect the battery and anything plugged into the ports.

Now press and hold the power button for 15 secs to fully discharge the logic board. Plug your battery back in and charger and restart your system.

Give it a good 5 minutes and take a fresh CoconutBattery snapshot and port it here so we can see it too.
