A. No it’s not a serious problem abd it’s okay give few sips of water to the child and try to divert mind and hiccups are common in kids when they laugh out loud or scream

POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 6 m old boy3 years ago

A. Centuries ago, people claimed hiccups meant a growth spurt for children. Today, we understand the mechanics of a hiccup: When the diaphragm — a muscle situated between the lungs and the stomach — becomes irritated, it begins to spasm. This spasm causes what is commonly known as hiccups.A baby's hiccups don't cause any physical damage. Even if they go on for 10 minutes or more, they generally are not a cause for concern. But if hiccups persist, a parent should be vigilant.
