Good day, i am currently 33 weeks pregnant and my baby keeps getting hiccups, is that normal/ safe?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: It is hiccups. Many babies do this in the later stages of pregnancy and in the first months after birth.It is triggered by electrical activity in the breathing muscle sort of like a heartbeat. It will bother you more than baby and dissapear when it gets older.
