Baby hiccups

Hi all,

I'm 30 1/2 weeks pregnant with my second and I felt him hiccup for the first time yesterday. But then it had me thinking about my first pregnancy... With my first, I felt hiccups everyday, maybe twice a day. With this pregnancy, I only felt them once. Is it ok not to feel them? is it something to worry about? Maybe I will start feeling them soon? I do feel him move frequently which is good! I just worry that he's not hiccuping as much.

Thanks for your input!

I'm sure it's FINE . .I feel my baby hiccup a few times a day some days and other days not at all. Every baby is different. I didn't feel hiccups until maybe 32-34wks or so.....

eta: the position of the placenta (which is different from pregnancy to pregnancy) can also impact what you feel- as well as the position of the baby. As long as you're feeling him regularly (at all) I wouldn't worry for a second about hiccups.

Re: Baby hiccups

Thank you so much! Maybe I will start feeling him more soon! I think he had them today at some point after i wrote the initial post.

There's always something to worry about! Lol
