Reasons why children hiccup in the stomach

In daily life, some pregnant women are not familiar with the changes of the fetus in the belly, or even feel unfamiliar, especially when their children hiccup in the belly. So let us understand the reasons why children hiccup in the belly.

main reason:

Medically known as "hiccups", it is the involuntary intermittent contraction of the diaphragm, air is suddenly inhaled into the respiratory tract, accompanied by the sudden closure of the glottis during inspiration, making a special short sound. Continuous contraction of the diaphragm reduces the pressure in the chest cavity, which can cause discomfort in the chest. Healthy people may experience hiccups when they are mentally stimulated or swallow dry food quickly while drinking less water, but the hiccups will disappear on their own.

It's the baby moving inside your belly. If your living habits are regular, your baby's life in your belly will also be regular. The baby's movements may be because he has just woken up and is stretching, or you are listening and doing something that you and he likes (frequent prenatal music teaching will help him form a habit). When he is happy, he will naturally dance in your belly.

It is normal for a fetus to hiccup, just like us adults breathing. Because the fetus' lungs are not well developed yet, it needs to constantly swallow amniotic fluid and practice lung breathing while swallowing amniotic fluid so that it can breathe normally like an adult after birth. In other words, hiccups are actually a way for the baby to improve the lung's breathing capacity. Just gently touch your baby when he hiccups, and the hiccups will stop after a few minutes.

The above article gives you a detailed introduction to the reasons why children hiccup in their stomachs. I believe everyone has a preliminary understanding of it. Therefore, in daily life, if such a situation occurs, there is no need to panic. It is a normal phenomenon.
