What does it mean when baby has hiccups?

Question

32 weeks 3 days and baby has had hiccups a lot lately. First of all I hate them, but do they mean something bad? I’ve seen mixed opinions and I I don’t want to worry if I don’t have to

Answer

It's normal, my son had them all the time. I liked feeling them because I knew he was ok in there.

Answer

Its perfectly normal! It gets counted as practice breathing :)

Answer

My baby had the hiccups every single day from somewhere in the second trimester onward and then had them almost every day after he was born until about 4 months. He’s completely fine! I always thought it was cute but I could definitely see how someone could find it annoying.

Answer

No, it’s good. They strengthen baby’s diaphragm

It’s actually a good thing.   They’re practicing breathing.  It’s not harmful to them at all
