    I knew when my DD was hiccupping when I was pregnant because it felt like hiccups that we get. I loved it but my DD got the hiccups after almost every meal that I ate and after she was born she'd get them with almost the same frequency as when I was pregnant...for the first couple of weeks that is.

    lol - I did wonder for a few seconds if it was the baby's heartbeat, but then I thought that it was much too slow.

    Ooooh, I so miss baby-in-belly hiccups, it was the cutest, most gorgeous feeling in the whole world and DS would get them atleast 2-3 times a day, he still does!

    yep, both my children got the hiccups pretty much everyday (especially DD, every night at 10:30pm!)

    Its so cute & lovely to remember when you have your baby in your arms & s/he gets the hiccups... great memories

    It used to drive me nuts trying to get to sleep while bubs had them though LOL

    DS2 always got the hiccups in my belly. I loved it.
    I never felt DS1's hiccups though. So it was really strange at first when I felt DS2s. Lol.

    Yay! What a cool feeling DD used to get them a couple of times a day both inside and out. I loved them when she was in my belly, but when she was a baby she'd always get them just before falling asleep and they'd make her wake up! Drove me nuts!

    Funny feeling isn't it.
    DS was the same - hiccupped ALL the time in utero, and carried on hiccupping once born.
    I had to have a few heart monitoring sessions with DS, and one time they couldn't find the heartbeat properly because he kept hiccupping the whole time.
