 I'm noticing steady tapping in the lower part of my stomach.  It light the way it feels. Could it be the baby is having hiccups?

Could be hiccups. If it's really late in pregnancy and it's faster than you'd expect hiccups to be, it might also be umbilical cord pulsing, apparently.

I've been wondering the same thing. I'm 30 weeks and it's been going on for about 2 weeks. It's starts all of a sufdden and then it will suddenly just stop. I've been told that when the baby gets the hiccups your entire stomach is jumping so I have no idea what it could be.

Welcome to the world of baby hicups!!! There are times when you can feel the "tapping" very low in your stomach and then others where you're whole stomach will jump. I think it's the neatest thing!!
