Hi Can anyone advise on how to stop hiccups. Is this some preggo thing. My first baby, Tried sipping water, hold breath, blowing nose, rhythmic coughs, but can't get rid of them. It hurts now. Been hiccing for 3 hours and it's started making be throw up......which, by the way, has not stopped them either. 8 months preggo. Just hugging a bucket, some tissues and my phone. My Mum is coming over soon. Fed up :(
