Hiccups?

This might sounds strange, but I'm nearly 7 weeks... And the last week or so, I keep getting random spouts of hiccups... No where near drinking or eating times, just randomly throughout the day. I get them about 10 times a day and they only last about 5 hiccups at a time. Just me?

I have this, mine is like 1 hiccup a time, around 10-12 hiccups a day, except maybe in morning I get a few in a row. Started around 6-7 weeks & is ongoing still (currently 22 weeks).

Not hugely annoying, they don't wake me up or stop me doing anything. I often do a weird gurgle noise right before that makes me sound a bit strange on phone!!

I have asked every medical professional I have had contact with about ways to stop them... but they mostly just laugh & tell me its normal for some women. Most annoying thing was when OH used to try to scare them out of me but thankfully he stopped that now cos I told him now the baby can hear he will scare her!

Ha ha. Thank you :)
At least I'm not the only one!
I make a strange gurgling noise before, too! Very strange :)
I really can't wait until I can feel that :)
