Hiccups, how often?

[MumofLewis]

Hi,

I'm just wondering how often you feel your bub's hiccuping? I've just realised I feel mine at least once a day, this seems quite alot.

At least I presume it's hiccups because it's always in the same spot and is like a faint slow heartbeat.

Hey, sounds like hiccups to me. I used to get them all the time with DD, maybe twice a day. And it's funny, I was told that they would more than likely continue in the big world too and they did. With this little one, I only feel them every now and again, right now actually (funny that). I would think it was so funny when other children would touch my belly when DD had the hiccups because it would really gross them out

Hi Sarah

My bub has the hiccups heaps..only lately has it slowed down to a couple of episodes a day..before that it happened aroud 5 or so times each day..poor little thing!
Funny feeling isn't it!

[Beach Mama]

Yep every day - usually when Ive eaten which is funny!! They actually kept me awake for about an hour last night - especially coz they are so low down!!

Oh that's good to know it's common to have them regularly, I was worried I was going to give birth to a little wind bag!!

Yep, our bub is a constant hiccuper too! at least twice per day in the evening and in the morning mostly.

Lol...yep, I actually miss the feeling a bit cos it was such a weird one! He doesn't hiccup as much now as he did in my belly though.

Blake hiccupped alot whilst in utero, and usually hiccups for half an hour after a feed, so it definitely carried through for us.

Noah hiccups 1 to 3 times a day inside, it will be interesting to see if he hiccups as much outside my tum.

Hehe Darc used to get them about 5-6 times per day. Usually for about 1/2-1 hour at a time. She still to this day has once every 1-2 days.

Yep, Jesse would get hiccups 2-3 times a day when in my belly. After born he got thema little bit too but now he hasnt had them for several months. Its very common, makes you just wonder if its all ok, but it definately is

Jambin hiccuped all the time in my belly .. usually a couple of times a day.
Now that he's been born, he still hiccups a lot ... mostly after I've finished feeding him (so about 8 times a day)!

Yep... my lil baby girl is always having the hiccups once a day if not more especially when iv eaten! It feels very much like a faint heart beat and is continusly sometimes to the point where i have to move around as it gets to the point where the feeling of it is very weird sensation i just need to get up and move around and actually when i do that she tends to stop x

DD had them constantly, sometimes up to three times a day.
She also had them alot for the first couple of months after birth.
DS had them alot less when I was pregnant, and he rarely got them after he was born either.
