Does my baby have hiccups, or should I be worried?

I'm wondering if anyone can help - I'm 34 wks and keep feeling this weird 'ticking' thing really low down, slightly to the right, almost in my inner thigh. It's a bit like when you get a little tick in the corner of your eye when you're tired, but feels like baby movement. I would think it was hiccups but it does seem faster than my hiccups would be and less 'jumpy'...

Hope I've explained that well enough, and if anyone has any clue to what it can be, please let me know!

I get it at least a couple of times a day at the moment.

Thanks!

It sounds completely normal I wouldn't worry sometimes it's your baby turning. Hiccups are pretty distinct rhythm.

It could be baby is resting on a nerve , making it twitch, so then the sensation would be much like the eye twitch you describe. They are getting pretty heavy by this stage of pregnancy and all sorts of twinges and twitches and even sharp shooting pains can occur now.
