how do you get rid of them

1) Taking baby sips of something to drink

2)1 teaspoon of peanut butter

3) half a teaspoonful of suger

4) holding your breath for about 20 seconds

Any one of these should help. Good Luck! I have a trick that always works: drinking half cup of fresh lime juice. recent article in st. petersburg times, fl 04/02/07 (I think) about a teen who had continuous hiccups for 37 days was cured by one hypnosis session.

what has always worked for me is to hold my breath for as long as possible - to the point where I feel faint. If you cheat a little, then it may not work. Drinking a large glass of water will prevent you from breathing - it works for me. hold your breath for about 10 seconds. then it should go away. or drink a glass of warm water try this, it worked on everyone I know who has tried it - it's easy and it works pretty fast - http://www.nohiccups.com - good luck Lay down flat on your back and relax all the way from your head to your toes! This always works for me and my kids. When they were babies I would lay them flat, hold their arms over their heads and sing them a little gentle song to relax them, worked every time!

Oh, and if my kids are yelling in the backround I usually have to go find somewhere quiet! and when I'm in the car I just put my head back against the seat and relax, sometimes I take a few deep breathes to help. Good luck!
