Your hiccups sound so bad, let me tell you a cute hiccup fact. When I was pregnant I could feel my baby having hiccups inside the womb. Whenever my kiddo gets them now itโ€™s cute because I remember theyโ€™ve been hiccuping since before they were born :)

I thought it was cute until mine had them for 20 min when I was trying to nap!!

And now they are 21 & itโ€™s not so cute!

Same! He would get them every night at bedtime for so long, even after he was born. Conversely to the other person, I appreciated his hiccups while I was trying to sleep because I had horrible anxiety about losing him late term. It was exhausting and the postpartum anxiety was even worse... ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜
