Could be normal or : there is something wrong. You do not want to irritate you diaphragm. Many conditions can cause this irritation and result in hiccups, including eating too fast and swallowing air, chewing gum, smoking, eating or drinking too much, anxiety and stress. Could be also more serious causes such as strokes, brain tumors, damage to the vagus or phrenic nerve. See your doctor if persist.
