why hiccips? how to get rid of that?

[rizoo]

 My baby get hiccups very quickly. i think that occur every one. but if it happen to baby  difficult to get rid of it.


Hiccups are paroxysmal, involuntary contractions of the diaphragm that occur along with contractions of the larynx and closure of the glottis, arresting the inflow of air. Hiccups are commonly induced by minor stomach upsets. Occasionally, hiccups may be ascribed to psychogenic causes originating in the mind. Mild cases of hiccups usually disappear without treatment.

Wesley use to get them so often it was nuts. I use to give him a shot of gripe water and poof they were gone. Even now he's five and if you make him laugh too hard(way to easy to do) he gets them.

Yes, gripe water works wonders. It's natural too.

doctor said that not good to give because there is some amount of alcohol in it. also not to give any thing other than brestmilk.

There's no alcohol in it. It is made from herbs. It could just be that it is a natural remedy, and doctors typically don't recommend natural remedies.

gripe water  is realyy very good for the kids and it does wonders.

Thanks

Unless it is specifically an alcohol-free gripe water they do contain approximately 4% alcohol by volume. It's like giving babies a teaspoon of weak beer   but the herbs found in gripe water are wonderful, and if you can get an alcohol-free one it would help.

But my doctor said never to worry about hiccoughs. they're seriously scary looking sometimes (Zed's whole torso would deform and it looked like his ribs were bending inwards) , but they bother you more than your baby.

At our place it is said by elder people that we should wory about hiccups as baby grows with them...
Dont know the logic behind it....

Cut a thin slice of lemon and let baby suck on it for less than a min. and the hiccups will stop. It should work the fist time, if it deosn't, repeat it. 

My son used to hiccup a lot and sometimes it was because his diaper was full and his bottom felt cold. When I changed his diaper, it stopped.

          thanks for your advice Raising Ethan
    is it good to use lemon with babies. he is only 3 months yet. 

         
    i didn't keep him with wet diaper even because of rashes

I wouldn't see why a lemon wouldn't be healthy? It's rich in Vit. C. and good for your throat. It usually will only take a few sec. to suck on or lick & the hiccups instantly go away. It's funny how efficent it works.

To avoid hiccups as much as possible, we should always let the baby burp after eating or after breastfeeding/bottle feeding. And if the hiccup is there, let the baby drink water.

My son's doctor told us that the best thing to do is to hold your baby in an upright position until their hiccups go away on their own.
