    DS's hiccups usually lasted for anywhere between 2-10 minutes, sometimes longer. I think his hiccups got stronger and longer the more my pregnancy went on, so the 10 or so bumps you feel could be the start of hiccups. As they get bigger, you really can't miss them because they shake their whole body and it can get quite uncomfortable, especially when their head is on your bladder!!

    My DD's hiccups were just light but in rhythm, she was breech and I could feel them down low near her bum, not near her head (no idea why), they were so gentle for me, never uncomfortable, they did last 2-10 minutes usually but sometimes it was just brief, she to gets them alot in the outside world .

    Wow, it seems that things feel so different when bubs isn't breech and placenta is placed on the back wall, I barely felt any movements with my DD, I am looking forward to all of the new things I will experence this time.
