Hiccups? Maybe ? Help

Question

So this morning I’m laying in bed with my hand on my belly and I feel almost a constant pulsing twitching feeling. It doesn’t feel like her kicks because those are usually stronger. I’ve never felt her have hiccups before if that’s what it is. I read online that hiccups after 32 weeks could indicate something is wrong. Should I call my OBGYN ?

Answer

My baby gets hiccups multiple times a day usually, I am 32w5d. I asked my OB the last time i was there and she said completely normal. Baby is practicing breathing movements and developing their lungs. No need to panic 😁

Answer

Hiccups to me feel like little kicks but they are in rhythm. Hiccups are nothing to worry about, your baby is just trying to learn to breathe. They will still have hiccups often once they are born aswell because they are still learning. :) 
I hope that puts your mind at ease. If you’re worried call, but in my opinion and from experience (I’ve questioned my midwife) there’s nothing to worry about if your little one has hiccups

Answer

Had a non stress test yesterday and my girl twin had hiccups and her chest was rising and falling with practice breaths. Nurse said she was an over acheiver and that was a good sign. So I would say in general they arent a problem.
I would caution you to be careful about reading articles. Sometimes you can send yourself into a panic and the article is false. Always er on the side of caution and give your nurse a call if your super worried.

Answer

I had those same rhythmic movements, almost like a heartbeat pulse and faint too. I called my obgyn office and they told me it was probably hiccups. But to reassure me, they said I could come in to get monitored. I went in and they hooked me up to the baby monitor and heartbeat monitor, kind of like the one you get during triage, for 20 minutes. Those movements happened while I was on the monitor and it recorded on the charts, however, when it was happening they had walked out for a bit before returning lol. After reading the charts, they still found nothing wrong and confirmed it to be hiccups. But go with your gut. If you feel something is wrong it doesnt hurt to check.
