Hiccups

I am just curious to see how often some of your twins have the hiccups...

My poor girls get them every couple of hours, I am talking 5-6-7 times a day! And it seems like when one finally stops, the other gets them minutes later, like they are contagious.
I realize its not a bad thing for them to have them, its just a little uncomfortable for me being as squished as I am haha. And I feel bad for the babes because I know I personally hate having the hiccups!

 

Both of my babies get them a lot too-Baby A seems to get them more often...I think it is cute when they get them and my niece and nephew love to feel them hiccuping.

 

My baby a gets them at least once a day (that I can feel) and usually just as I'm ready to fall asleep. I've read that it doesn't bother the babies like it bothers adults. The good news is that it means they are practicing their sucking skills right??

 

For some reason I've only experienced baby hiccups once thus far. Brooke had them one night, she is head down so I could feel them really well in my lower stomach. I think it's really cute, but it hasn't happened since then. I wonder why some get them more than others....

 

Mine get them about once a day or so, I never realized what they were until I was having an u/s a few weeks back and the tech was like, "look, Baby B is hiccuping", I just thought it was the baby making small kicks, what an idiot am I! The tech said hiccups are a good thing b/c it means they are practice breathing, in fact they automatically get 2 points on the biophysical profile for having hiccups!

 

My twins get them that many times a day too and they are both head down so it is hard to tell which is which but it feels really funny!

 

Kaitlyn used to get them all the time. We had her experiencing them on the u/s too. My OB always said that it is more annoying for you than it is for them. Already in this pregnancy I'v felt them too. You can definitely tell the difference because these come in a pattern whereas kicks are more eratic.

 

My baby A gets them more often than B, baby A is about 2-3 times a day. I have only fely B get them a couple of times. I am assuming it is because of his position in relation to the placenta's.

 

My twins had them ALL the time. REagan got them at least 3-4 times a day and then Morgan had them 2-3 times a day...it felt like it was constant.
