    Hi,
    My baby is 11 weeks old and is just starting to laugh but everytime he laughs he gets the hiccups and gets upset :( The hiccups could last for 10 minutes.
    Even when he smiles a lot he gets the hiccups. Just wondering if anyone else has seen this happen to your babies? Any advice is much appreciated!! :)

    Yeah and then mine pukes...

    A small drink water / milk from a bottle cures my ds's hiccups straight away.

    Mine used to hiccup for 30 minutes or more! :)
    Sometimes sucking on her soother used to help, but most of the time the poor thing had to just wait for them to stop. I never found a guaranteed solution for her.
    Now at 6 months she finds hiccupping hilarious!! :)

    my 9 year (yes, year) old still gets hiccups when she properly giggles. Any drink at all usually fixes her right up, and always has

    Hi ZoeZ

    My little guy use to get the hiccups all the time when he was younger for 10-20 minutes at a go. It didn't actually bother him at all but I found that his soother helped it stop a lot. He is 6 months now and doesn't get them that often anymore!
