My baba gets them too!
I feel bad becuase I find them quite annoying but I know my baby cant help it.
When baby does have them I get an old empty toilet or kitchen roll and put it on my belly where the hiccups are and my husband uses it to hear them!

I only worry about whether or not they are hurting my son when he has them, but otherwise they are only slightly painful (I’m 40 weeks and some days) when he’s pushing into my ribs when they start… I can’t wait to see him and make sure he’s ok! I find that calming myself down; meditating sort of, helps to make them go away. I wonder though if there’s any truth to the theory that after babies are born what MOM eats can cause hiccups for nursing newborns?!? Maybe eating cereal is giving my lactose intolerant baby hiccups in utero!? I hope not. We’ll see if he gets them when I breastfeed… Good Luck to all the newly forming families!!

Fetal Hiccups can mean that the baby is perfectly healthy or that the baby is not getting enough oxygen. I am the mother of a baby who was stillborn. She had hiccups like crazy and I was told that it was the sign of a healthy baby. My daughter was not getting enough oxygen and she died at 37 weeks.

I would recommend testing if the baby has them too often just to play it safe.

Who cares if someone thinks the hiccups in utero are annoying? It’s not like they’re mad at the baby or love the baby any less. Jeeze lay off. I’m 31 weeks and my son had the hiccups 3 or 4 times a day, and yes I find it irritating at times. That doesn’t change the fact that I love him so much and can’t wait to finally meet him.

Im 25 weeks pregnant and I too feel it everytime when my baby gets the hiccups. At first it felt kinda weird and I was wondering what that was but then I read an article on here that expalined what it was and now I know every single time when she has them, this si my first baby so Im actually pretty happy that I get to feel all of her mmovements as I too thought that I would never be able to experience it for my own. It brings alot of joy to me and my husband :]

How lucky you are to be able to experience the joys of motherhood! I know I am , so before you think they are annoying think of all the women struggling to get to bs in place you are in an then maybe you will rub your tummy an think of what a miracle you have been blessed with instead of how “annoying” those little hiccups that some women are just dying to feel just once!!! I know I am loving every minute bc I am one of those women who was told she may not be able to have kids, an everytime I heard a pregnant woman complain I wanted to just yell an scream an cry.

I’m 38 1/2 weeks pregnant and don’t find baby’s hiccupping annoying at all, I was just wondering if there’s anything I could do to help her. Or if there’s a reason beyond what I read. I agree with Richard about it being more concerning and one trying to help than anything else.

This is my third child, and I don’t recall the hiccuping to be as intense or consistent. I believe with my son I didn’t even feel them. He was born at 37 1/2 weeks, though, so perhaps no complete maturity there.
