I think I've felt hiccups one time, but I wasn't sure if they were hiccups or just the babe kicking in the same place for a couple of minutes. I never felt them with my first pregnancy either. I guess some babies get hiccups more than others. On a positive note, my first son rarely got the hiccups after he was born, which was good. I know some babies get so frustrated with hiccups and there's not too much you can do for them!
Nope. Never felt them with DD either. She has only had hiccups once in her life so I think some kids are just more hiccup prone than others. Come to think of it, I don't think I have ever seen DH with hiccups.
You may have had them and not realized it. I didn't think I felt them either until my 3D scan when the tech told me the baby had the hiccups. They just felt like little kicks to me... now I can recognize the difference. They feel like little kicks but are like 5-10 seconds apart and only last for 3,4, or 5 hiccups. So, you're probably getting them but not realizing it!
I haven't felt them yet either. I felt them all the time with DS, but I don't remember how far along I was when they started. Baby hiccups are seriously the best thing about pregnancy, I hope we all get to feel them soon.

I've heard them once on a monitor when I had to go to L&D for observation, and when I realized how quick they were (every 2 seconds or so), I was able to realize when I felt them, which has now been twice. I can only feel them if I'm on my back or reclining, and putting my hand on my belly helps. It feels like a muscle twitch to me, like one you'd get near your eye maybe. Didn't really feel much like kicks. And it's very rhythmic and very very subtle, at least for me at this point. I get so frustrated for my lil guy, they last for ages for him!! Maybe around 10-15 minutes, I'd say.
I have an anterior placenta and felt hiccups for the first time at 27 weeks and 6 days. Since then I feel them every single day, lately multiple times a day. They are subtle but if you pay attention you'll notice they feel like tiny rhythmic kicks. I just listened to her heart on the Doppler while she had hiccups and it was hysterical. wa.wa.wa.hiccup.wa.wa.wa.hiccup.wa.wa.wa.hiccup. By the time they are over she is pissed and kicks like crazy. Poor little thing
I havn't felt hiccups. But I am also just now starting to feel the baby.

If you are feeling any regular, rhythmic movement from your baby, even if it seems too quick to be normal hiccups, it's likely hiccups.
I don't feel them as kicks though. I know baby is head down, and with all three of my pregnancies, I mostly feel the hiccups in my butt/private area. It's like little rhythmic pops in that region. I don't feel them up higher at all...but that could be because baby is head down (and my other two were head down for most of the pregnancy as well.)
Re: Am I the only one who hasn't felt hiccups?
i actually think i just felt them today. you may have just not noticed that they were hiccups, how can we ever be sure anyways?! lol
Nope. Never felt them with DD either. She has only had hiccups once in her life so I think some kids are just more hiccup prone than others. Come to think of it, I don't think I have ever seen DH with hiccups.
I have no idea if I've felt them. Everybody says "you'll know" but I haven't. I feel several feelings that I think could be them, but I have no idea.
I'm not worried about it. I'm loving all the moves/kicks/rolls I do feel!
This little guy is active and I love it!
Nope - nothing yet, but it?s still early days.
did feel them with DS, but not till I was into 30+ weeks
they are cute - but can also be annoying at 4am!!

With DD she had hiccups a lot. She still gets them now (21 months).
I have not felt any with this pregnancy. But I'm sure they'll come. I get them myself ALL the time!
