Are you wondering on How to stop Baby Hiccups? Hiccups in babies are quite common and your little one is no different. But you would be surprised to know that hiccups that bother adults like us like anything, don't really disturb babies at all. Yes, your baby can actually sleep and breathe without even a little disturbance even if he's having hiccups.

Generally, babies are not bothered by their hiccups and can eat and sleep well also. But if your baby has hiccups constantly for a longer period than usual, the tips below can help you stop them:
It is generally gas that causes your newborn baby to hiccup and hence, it is a good idea for you to stop feeding him for a while and take a break. Try to burp your baby as this will help the little one get rid of excess gas, which in turn is likely to stop his continuous hiccups.
-Give your baby gripe water, which is a solution popular for getting rid of gas and colic in babies.
-Give your child a pacifier that can keep him distracted, as distraction works wonders in curing hiccups in not just babies but adults as well.
-Don't panic and give it some time. In most cases, your baby's hiccups will run its course and stop on their own.
However, as your little one grows, the hiccups can be quite bothersome and in those cases, it's advisable for him to drink loads of water for the hiccups to subside and another way is eating a spoonful of sugar to get rid of them.
