Dante had them before he could kick me, I felt them, he still has them, I would say 5 out of 7 days a week, 2-3 times a day. He gets soooo mad, the only thing that helps him is movement, I'll pick him up and bounce him. I guess cause he's consentrating on something. It's horrible, Ped said the same thing, bothers mom more then baby, He eats and nursed right through them ;)
Kynzie got the hiccups really bad at first too. My MIL freaked out about them, convinced they were bad for her or something. I asked the pedi at her one week checkup and she said they don't really bother the baby but it is just due to an immature nervous system and the only way to get rid of them is to get baby to burp or eat more. At almost six weeks Makynzie doesn't really get them too often anymore so they'll fade.
My 7 month old got the hiccups a lot as a little baby too. I heard that if you give them a drink or if you blow in their face it could help. Really his hiccups didn't seem to bother him. If you are bottlefeeding you might want to try a bottle that vents the air out more, like Dr Browns, or playtex ventair, or playtex nursers (and squeeze the air out).
What a cutie by the way.
My 2 1/2 year old still gets the hiccups every time he laughs hard, lol.
My 3.5-month-old DD gets the hiccups 2 or 3 times a day and has done so from the day she was born and before (when I was pregnant, it was 2 or 3 times a day).
