Sleeping Hiccups

mweav1025

Anyone else have babies that seem to get the hiccups while they are fast asleep.  There have been three occasions that during the middle of the night while LO is fast asleep she seems to get the hiccups.  It doesn't wake her up, effect her breathing, or really bother her at all.  Freaks me out though because it sounds totally weird over the baby monitor but there isn't much I have found to help and just have to let them run their course.

I have no idea if this is common or what.  Just wondering if anyone else has experienced it. Her 9 month appointment is next week and I plan on bringing it up to her doctor just because I am curious to how common it might be and to see if I should ever be concerned when it happens.

I hate getting the hiccups while I am awake, it boggles my mind that she seems to get the while she is sleeping and it doesn't bother her one bit.

I don't have experience with this, but does your LO have reflux or anything like that?  I don't know what would  cause hiccups while the body is at rest.  I guess it could just be spasms of her diagphram.

I just wanted to say that when I was a kid I had lots of hiccups all the tune and my mom had me checked out and it wasn't anything but my grandma used to say it was because I was growing. Seems like I still get them more than usual people but now instead of growing up, I'm growing out.

Sorry. Misplaced newb. The forums have me confused. Lol. You were my second misplaced post. The mobile app is not the easier to get around but I'm figuring it out. Again, sorry for the interruption.
