April Mommys' - Baby Hiccups?

Question

Hello all,

I am 33 weeks and it's been two weeks since I have noticed that my baby starts to hiccup as soon as I am done eating. This could be breakfast, lunch or dinner.

It's like clockwork and starts while I am almost finishing dinner or a couple of minutes after I have.

The hiccups usually last anywhere between 5 - 10 mins.

Anyone else noticed the same? Is this normal? Although, it's nice to know that the baby is doing okay because I like to anticipate this movement along with the twitches, rolls and kicks. But I was just wondering if I was the only one who had noticed these?

Thank you for your answers!

Answer

Baby boy here gets hiccups at least twice a day, at any given time! At almost 37 weeks now, his head is so low I can feel the hiccups in my pelvis and butt!! 😂

Answer

My baby girl is the same way. My doctor said it's completely normal and actually a sign that she's practicing breathing. She said you can even count hiccups as fetal movement. Your baby probably starts  to wake up when you eat and then gets the hiccups. Mine does that a lot too.

Answer

My baby gets hiccups 2-3x a day! I enjoy feeling his hiccups and wonder if he will have them when he's on the outside

Answer

Mine gets the hiccups after I eat too!!
