Question

Newborns often have frequent hiccups. Are there any methods to alleviate or prevent them?

Answer

When newborns have hiccups, certain measures can be taken to ease discomfort, such as using toys to distract their attention or playing soft music. Additionally, it’s important to maintain proper feeding posture and avoid eating too fast during feeding. Preventing hiccups from occurring is also crucial; you can let the baby rest for a while after crying before feeding and ensure that the flow of breast milk or formula is moderate during feeding.
