Hey I just wrote to you in another forum ... haha my girl had the hicups easily 5 times a day ... and now that she's out she is still getting them lots ... normally twice a day. The doctor's say she is fine but just greedy and takes in food to fast and in my womb must of been gulping up fluid to fast also. Maybe youve got a little piggy in there like I did.

You make me wish I was pregnant already again!! I miss all these small things sooo much. The kicking, the hickups (both times my boys had LOTS of them), just being pregnant. Is this your first? I know the absolute worst part of being pregnant is afterwards when the baby is born you're left with a jelly blob of a stomach. So empty. It's horrible!

Yes this is my first. I know i am goign to miss being pregnant after I have my girl, but I also know I'm going to enjoy being a mom just as much.

I'm with you vcaone! I wanna be pregnant again so bad! lol.

Hiccups are when your diaphragm spasms. The only reason ours have a sound to them is because there is air rushing past your throat. Since there is no air around your baby, they don't make any sound.

Plus hiccups mean your baby is growing (I know it's not true, but if you think about it, it kinda makes sense, doesn't it?)

Worst part about being pregnant being the jelly belly? Pfff the worst part was the labour!!! Well my labour lasted 3days and I almost died so thats probably why I have that belief. But I didn't get a jelly blob lol lucky me my stomach just went back to normal EXCEPT for the dark line that runs up my front lol ... when does that fade? I've been a mum now for almost 3 weeks and every time I wear a bikini I feel like people are staring at me thinking i've spilt something down my front lol.

my son got hiccups 7 times one day!! I though he would NEVER stop!! Im glad that his diaphram is developing but if he is gulping up the amniotic fluid too fast like someone said I have a feeling he will NEVER stop eating once he comes out! lol well good luck with the rest of your pregnancies ladies

I have the same thing, my little boy gets them 3-5 times a day and my dr. said thats perfectly normal and doesnt bother him a bit like they do with us when we get them. They hardly know they have them i guess.

im 30 weeks now and my boy gets them ALL the time, it makes me laugh so much, i think its their body getting ready to come out into the world, practicing the breathing motion so anythin that benefits my baby is fine with me. it realy is the cutest thing ever i always have a smile on my face. i say carry on hiccuping babys u lil cuties, good luck mummys to be

But what I want to know is what causes the hiccups?
