I Think My Baby Is The Only One Who Doesnt Get Hiccups...

Leggadine08 · March 2011

Everybody talks about it, my Mom said it was one of her favorite things about being pregnant but I have yet to feel any. She just wiggles, rolls and rubs her lil hands and feet on my tummy (which tickles! lol) but Ive never felt anything that would make me think hiccups. I was kinda curious as to what they felt like and would like to experience them at least once but she hasnt had any so far.

Anybody else not felt hiccups?

I'll raise my hand as someone who hasn't. Of course, I don't know if it's because I have a larger anterior placenta and if there is any jumpy/jerky movements I'm not likely to feel it..

It's a trip as it is to SEE myself getting kicked and punched on an ultrasound and not even feel it

Out of three pregnancies, only my second son had hiccups in the womb. He was breech from week 14 through week 34. He also was born with a full head of hair. Stick out tongue

You're not alone! No hiccups here!! Much to my dismay Crying

I only had it for the first time last week. It was pretty cool, but don't feel bad. Maybe your baby just isn't prone to hiccups?

I was feeling the same way, BUT I just felt them for the first time this morning (I'm 32 weeks). Before that, I felt all kinds of movement, but there's was never anything that was distinctly hiccups.

i havent had any either, and DS#1 had them annoyingly bad when i was pregnant with him. For HOURS. im kinda glad i havent had any yet

I didn't start feeling it till almost 32 and 1/2 weeks, so you still have time!

To me it feels like a tiny little heartbeat in your belly. At first you think it's kicking, then you realize that baby is keeping beat!

i've felt them for quite a while now....but maybe that's because i'm on bedrest and can "feel everything".

LO gets them at least 2x a day. and ALWAYS between 10-11pm like clockwork! it feels like a consistant repetetive tick or "drumb beat". over and over and over. In fact i can even have DH put his hand on my belly and he can feel them!

oh..and i have an anterior placenta too. but she is head down so the hiccups are always low and over to the side where she is laying!

I think I felt them once last week, but it might be due to my anterior placenta...

I think he had hiccups the other day but I'm not sure, so I'll join your no hiccup club.

He gets them all the time. It feels just like any other soft movement really, but in perfect rhythm LOL!

I haven't felt mine have the hiccups either, but saw him having them on the ultrasound. My doctor said that was normal and I may feel them more as I get further along (I'm 31 weeks).

I hadn't felt any hiccups until yday. They are pretty cool though.

I think they feel weird - I would much rather feel kicks and punches. To me, it feels like a short muscle-spasm that keeps repeating in the exact same spot. Doesn't hurt, just that awkward jolt-y feeling when your muscles spasm. I only notice them when I'm sitting or laying, and most of the time, I don't notice unless I'm in a pretty "calm" activity, like reading, as opposed to an "active" activity, like watching a movie or playing a game.

I haven't felt any hiccups either!.. I get bummed out hearing everyone talks about them. Hopefully soon I will feel some!

IU_baby · March 2011

I never felt them with my son and have not felt them yet with this pregnancy either.

robbie3982 · March 2011

DS used to get them all the time. I haven't felt them once this time around.

Lilyzmom · March 2011

I only felt them a time or two with DD with this LO I haven't felt them yet even though I saw her having them on an U/S. That was bizzarre!! Hopefully I'll start feeling them in the next couple of weeks.
