Hiccups!

[l_maclean]

Madam has then for the first time - I though it was cute for about the first five mins, but now I'd like some sleep!

Anyway to get rid of them or do I just need to wait it out??

Xxx

[l_maclean]

what do hiccups feel like ?

 

[l_maclean]

It's like kicks but gentler and in rhythm. I had bump pressed against DH's back and I was surprised he could feel them. But it was the regularity that makes menthink it was hiccups - seem to gave stopped now though. Just DH's snoring to contend with. Lol

I cant really describe it... Its like a pulsing/ twithcing in your belly at first n if u watch your belly it jumps up and down lol... sorry not good at describing things lol x

 

[l_maclean]

Lol - I dunno if mine was twitching, cos I'm in bed in the dark with my phone. Lol. A pluse was a good way to described it though - but no where near fast enough to be hb if that makes sense.

 

[eldraW]

I totally get what u mean lol... I think its fasinating lol xx

 

[jojo_2012]

I'll have to look out for that, at the moment baby just has a general rave then sleeps.

I think maybe your OH's snoring is settling the baby in your belly lol good to know for when he/she's on the outside. Sleep with daddy!

Not sure how it works but our babies are now practicing swallowing with the amniotic fluid and also sucking motion with their thumb. There mouths are def not shut x x

Hiccups are funny! The first few times I thought it was my own pulse in my belly... Really strange... My little guzzler gets them quite a lot! She got them when I was on the baby monitor at the hospital and the midwife was also laughing!

Sounds like I get off lightly... They only last a couple of minutes max each time!
I remember one time my father in law had them for over a week non stop, went to the GP and everything. Obviously stopped him from sleeping - it can happen apparently. Just hope none of our LOs get them for that long!!!
