  • Hiccups in Utero
    Pregnant women often mention feeling their baby having hiccups while in the womb and wonder what causes this. These hiccups can start in the first trimester, but won’t be felt by mom until late in the second trimester or during the third trimester.

    The exact cause of your baby’s hiccups is unknown. However, many specialists believe that your baby’s hiccups may be helping to strengthen the diaphragm muscle in order to help the baby breathe both in the womb and once they are born.


    Yes. Fetal hiccupping is a normal phenomenon that's been felt by many pregnant women and has been observed on many an ultrasound. Your baby may have started hiccupping intermittently beginning in the late first or early second trimester, although you wouldn't have been able to feel the hiccups at that early stage.

  • Golly I remember that. It was cool feeling it unless it was 3 am and I was trying to sleep. Won't be too much longer.

  • Yes they do but you're far too early to feel them! Your baby is SO tiny right now, and like a PP said, the mother can't feel them until in the second trimester. Maybe you're farther along than you think?
