if you lay on your side, doesnt matter which side it is, you do start feeling like a pulsation  from the inside, and it can go on for a few minutes..i feel them late night and early morning. i heard that some babies dont have any and others do it all the time!!
so dont worry if you dont feel them at all!!

thank you ladies!!

I read somewhere that they feel like a gentle heartbeat under your skin. Rhythmic and constant. And that is exactly what it feels like. At least to me.

I have felt them at least once a day, sometimes more than that - I am busy during the day, so sometimes I don't notice them.  It took me a while to realize that they were actually hiccups.  I guess it feels like a constant little kick, with regular intervals in between them.

NOPE! I think i'ts hard to describe how it feels since you have a lot of movements at this stage, for me i just feel this sudden throbbing, it goes on for some seconds and then it's gone, can anyone be more explicit?

I either dont know how it feels or my Chloe doesnt have them.  She kicks up a storm and wiggles around everywhere.  But I havent felt her have the hiccups.  I am 35 1/2 weeks, should I be concerned????

me too, at least 3 times per day. He had them on Tuesday when my doctor was trying to get a heartbeat. She said it's perfectly normal, that at this stage baby is practicing taking breaths, and that hiccupping is not as uncomfortable for him as it is for us.

yes, yes I do! At least 3 times a day as well!  And they can go on for ages!  I'm 32 weeks pregnant now, but they have been going on for weeks!

At first I was quite worried about him hiccuping so much, but the doctor says it's normal and a sign baby is developing well. So, although I still feel sorry for the poor thing (it can't be confortable to hiccup so much!), I am quite relaxed about it!
Just can't wait to see him ACTUALLY hiccuping!
