Hiccups

Baby M has the hiccups. I kind of feel bad since there's not much I can do to help him/her out. They last anywhere from 5 to 10 minutes and can happen several times during the day. It's very easy to tell them apart from a kick or other movement. It just feels like a rhythmic beat coming from my stomach. Last night Baby M got them just as I was laying down to go to sleep. So that meant that I couldn't sleep until they stopped. But from the research I've read, fetal hiccups are perfectly normal and means the baby is healthy.
