    I am 32 weeks pregnant and for the past day or two I can hear one of my twins hiccuping for maybe 30 min or so at a time. Is this normal?

    It's actually great. :) s/he is practicing breathing for the outside. It's very normal- they say every baby does it although like you, I only ever felt one of mine doing it (perhaps due to his positioning).

    I had one of the hiccupiest kids around... he was my baby A.. bum right on my cervix and back on my right side.. that kid hiccupped ALL DAY LONG. It's normal, but it feels so weird!

    My baby has been doing it too, And when he does it seems like he gets mad and tries to move away from them LOL!

    Good to see that it is normal! I guess it is common during the third trimester for lung development...

    Yep, totally normal. My oldest son was a major hiccuper. I felt him all the time the last couple months and even when I was in labor. Then it seemed like he had hiccups almost every day for about the first 4 months after he was born. But now he doesn't get them any more than any of the rest of my kids, maybe even less.
