A. hiccups in children occur due to gas which is present in the stomach. during the feeding process child takes air along with milk and that air goes inside the stomachz which irritates leading to hiccups. you have to offer feeding as well as do proper burping(zfor atleast 20 minutes) to decrease this problem and it is a self limiting problem during hiccups just give breastfeeding again and keep the child in upright position for burping which will stop the episode you can go for any brand of formula milk. meet your doctor who will tell you which formula milk will suit your child. the important thing is that it should be easily digestible and should not cause any colic pain or loose motion for constipation and if a particular brand is causing change the brand .
