How do you get rid of your hiccups??

Me personally I take a glass of water.. and drink it upside down.. by bending over and drinking it while the rim of the glass is on my upper lip and chug it down.

WORKS EVERY TIME!


What works for you?
 
I drink water while turning my head. I don't know why but it seems to work for me every time.
 
What works for my kids... Is I will point my finger at their nose, and tell them I will give them a dollar if they hiccup again..

Works for them every time!! :giggle:
 
I have sometimes serious cases of hiccups where it hurts my chest a lot. The only problem for me to solve that is to lay down on my back, take a deep breath and push hard on my thoracic diaphragm so it stays down for about 30 seconds... then release slowly by taking deep slow breath in and out....

Then I'm ready to go again... :D

Drinking, eating... all normal remedies don't work with my slightly more severe case of hiccup! You should try it out ;)
 
If my hubby has the hiccups, I tell him that I'm pregnant. Works like a charm. :laugh2:
 
It really makes hubby LOL. He's had a vasectomy so it's not even possible for me to be pregnant (unless it's another man's baby!). No more babies for us! Funny joke, though.
 
If someone has a hiccup, scare the crap out of'em. :P

Me, I just hold my breath until it stops.

LOL! Don't be silly! We'll be busy organizing the wheel chair races. :giggle:

Oddly, I miss wheelchair races. And cart-jousting (with shopping carts.)

Don't ask. It's called living in dorms in Canada's only student-regulated residence.

I've engaged in a little cart jousting in my younger days!:giggle:

Me too! It does work on me :D
 
Nothing works for me. I just get laughed at because my hiccups can last up to an hour. It always hurts lol
