Internal ticking

Hi ladies, I'm nearly 28 wks and since yesterday I've seen my belly size increase a lot more. Since this increase, Im now feeling this tapping sensation inside in the area below the belly button. Not sure if anyone's felt this before? Is this baby's heartbeat or is he blowing bubbles?! Lol, cos thats what it feels like. Nothing painful, just a rhythmic tap, tap, tap. Very strange...

Hiccups. It was the weirdest thing when I felt them with my first child for the first time. I thought something was very wrong because surely I shouldn't be able to feel his heart beating so hard! Lol. I was relieved to find out it was hiccups.
