My first baby had hiccups all the time and it continued after he was born. This one hasnt had them at all or if he has I havent felt them!

I dont think it causes any harm though

is anyone else getting this

not sure how do u kno if LO has hiccups?

Libby has hiccups at least twice a day, usually first thing in the morning and then once more at some point.....I know what you mean though it is frustrating.

Trixipaws.....you'll know when baby had them, its like rythmic pattern of bounces inside your tummy, kinda like when you have hiccups, but you'll feel regular pops in your tum.

Nothing you can do to help him, I stroke my tummy when she had them but I don't think it does her any good, I just try to comfort her - as personally I hate having the hiccups myself so I automatically assume she doesn't like it either

Jacob used to get bad hiccups in my tummy and still gets them at least once a day now! I don't think there is anything you can do, i guess its nice just to feel them!

yes, Oliver gets them loads at least 2-3 times a day, it is definitly a good sign because it shows that the baby is practising the swallowing reflex which helps them to breathe better when they are born

although if babies dont get them it doesnt make a difference x

Dylan had hiccups the other day.I told A and he shouted boo...His hiccups stopped immediately and he never moved again for another hour till I got into bed LOL

I wonder who comes up with all this stuff sometimes...I mean, how do they know they like it?

In my house i always say hiccups are a sign of growing

My LO gets them about twice a day and don't think baba likes them, after so long LO starts really moving about as though they are annoying.

Jamie always hiccuped, it was so funny watchin my bump bounce!!
he still gets them now but not as bad

Oooooooh the hiccups are so funny, for me I get the belly bounce and also where you would wee from (sorry TMI), it feels like its open and closing ever so slightly and quickly with every hiccup, its the weirdest feeling but makes me smile everytime I have read that sweet flavours are more appealing to LO's and makes them drink amniotic fluid faster which adds to more hiccups, so staying away from sweet foods may help ease it if you don't want them at a particular time, though that doesn't explain them if you get them as you wake up of a morning hehe
