Can babies sneeze?

[Melly19MummyToBe]

I was in bed last night and felt 2 sudden big jolts on the right side of my bump, within a few seconds of each other. And it felt exactly like a small person sneezing!! I know it wasn't extra strong kicks because I could feel her kicking on the left side of my bump lol! I know they probably can't sneeze in water, but if it was hiccups they were pretty major ones!! :o

They do hiccup thats for sure!! not sure if they sneeze though lol

I've been thinking about it, and I know they live in water -well not water you but you know what I mean- but you would probably drown if you tried to sneeze underwater wouldn't you? Although they sort of breathe the Amniotic Fluid don't they?? I will have to ask my midwife next time I see her, It probably was a couple of hiccups but I wouldn't think they'd be that explosive lol!

babies can startle too.

They sure can, I nearly jumped out my skin lol!
