A member asked:
I'm 18 weeks pregnant how would i know if i feel my baby having hiccups?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Rhythmic "jumps": Although 18 weeks is early to feel the baby moving, some patients feel the baby that soon. While the exact cause of baby's hiccups isn't certain, if you feel rhythmic sudden "bounces" or "jumps, " those movements probably are the result of hiccups.
