Q.

pls suggest an immediate solution for hiccups in newborn like "gripe water ".As it takes too long to settle and many times we need to breast feed the baby to stop it . p.s . my mom used to say that they used to give us gripe water for hiccups when we were new born.

A. no use of gripe water during hiccups. Hiccups often start when someone does two things together, like laughing when eating or drinking.Babies do not get upset from hiccups, so you do not need to try and stop a baby's hiccups, but if you want to try, give your baby something to drink a breast feed

A. Hiccups are normal and usually don't hurt your baby. In younger babies, hiccups are usually a sign that they need to be seated upright during or after feeding, that feeding needs to be slower for them, or that they need more time before or after feeding to relax..
