A doctor has provided 1 answer
Have they stopped?: There are so many remedies for stopping hiccups. Holding your breath, taking a teaspoon of granulated sugar, having someone frighten you - these are a few that some people use. You might want to google up "hiccup remedies" and see what you come up with. Remember that prolonged, continuous hiccups may be a warning signal - get checked by your doctor if you are having continous hiccups. Good luck.
