Baby keeps having hiccups

[Bobley]

I am 27 weeks pregnant and my baby has hiccups about 4-5 times a day!

Is this normal? In all the books it says they can get hiccups when they practice breathing but I wouldn't of thought it would happen this much?!

I have also had to start taking an antibiotic for a urine infection so would this affect it?

Any help would be great!!

totally normal. both my girls had loads of hiccups in the womb. they also had tons of hiccups for about their first 6 months outside it as well.

dd1 even hiccuped thru labour!

you've just brought back a lovely memory

Ds used to hiccup all the time while I was pregnant and still does now (7 months).

Try and see if there is a pattern to it. I used to notice ds would would start 1/2hr - 1hr after I'd eaten
