Fetal hiccups
My baby has rythmic movements in the womb that clearly feel like hiccups and they happen family twice a day . Currently I am 36 weeks n 4 days and my baby's hiccups happen mostly for 15 minutes but sometimes go on for half an hour . Few days back it happened for an hour too . This scares me a lot coz I read on the net that it indicates some umbilical cord issue .like wrapping of it around my baby's neck or cord prolapse with lack of oxygen reaching my baby.should I be worried ? I panic each time this happens . Pls help .
