Frequent hiccup 1.5 year girl child
My daughter is 1.5 year old and she gets hiccups more than 15 times a day. When it about to start she runs at sofa or bed and starts to roll and she looks very comfortable soon after that she becomes normal. It started 6 months back but now it looks like developed. We consulted nearest doctors the said she will forget it after sometimes.

This could be due to what we call gastro-oesophageal reflux(GER).
You need to give just 2 milk and 4 solid feeds ,do NOT keep feeding her through out the day,keep regular meal times.
If this doesn't work meds may be needed,but only after examining the child.
