hiccups

[jessmyr90]

I'm 30 weeks today. And my son has. Hiccups all the time that last for ten or so minutes. Happens at least 3_6 times a day. I did some looking online (which I shouldn't have) but it says things like it could be the umbilical cord wrapped around him or problems with his lungs?? Has anyone had this issue?? Is this something.g I should get checked right away my next appointment is on Christmas eve. I also noticed a little decrease in movement lately... tia

My doc told me its a sign of them exercising there lungs so the more the better

In my case I just have a greedy baby. He is constantly drinking his amniotic fluid when I eat something sweet. Your baby could just be getting sips of your amniotic fluid

I mentioned this to my doctor, mine gets hiccups daily, I'm 36 weeks... and he said it's actually a sign of a healthy baby.

My baby girl had hiccups allll the time pretty much anytime i ate, drank, or layed down and she was born perfectly healthy no umbilical wrapped around the neck
