Constant fetal hiccups?

Question

Anyone else notice constant fetal hiccups? Im about 36 weeks and my baby seems to have them at least 2-5 times a day. Brought it up to my doctor and she said its normal but I made the mistake of googling it and came across a bunch of posts that said they are caused by a knot in the cord so now am worried.

Answer

My girl gets them probably 4 times a day. I actually find them reassuring! Means she is doing well with her practice breathing movements. 😊

Answer

Our daughter has them constantly lol it's adorable.

Answer

My daughter who is 8 had them non stop in the womb and it was so annoyinggggg I felt it in my cervix constantly all day every day.  Apparently an active hiccupper is a sign of a healthy baby.  My boy didn't hiccup much but this baby girl in my tummy does
