A Fitbit Blaze should hold a charge for almost a full week during normal use, but it's a good idea to give charge it every three or four days to ensure it doesn't die on you.
You will see a battery icon on the screen of your Fitbit Blaze once it is properly placed in its charging cradle and is being powered up.
