Best Answer

try drinking before you eat!

Try drinking a few cups of water.

It should get better, but if not, try patting yourself on the chest.

This should stop it happening.

Opinion: I heard a couple of days ago that pinching your nose and gulping water helps. But I've never tried that.

I have tried tilting my head back and drinking water. That helps.

Anyway write those in to a medical dictionary.

There is also another way that my friend tried on me today, and it works!! (maybe not for all people) 'PWH' stands for person with hiccups by the way!

friend: what is 2+2

PWH: 4

friend: what is 4+4

PWH: 8

friend: what is 8+8

PWH: 16

friend: what is 16+16

PWH: 32

friend: what is 32+32

PWH: 64

friend: what is 64+64

PWH: 128

friend: now think about penguins

i know it is totally random, but i then stopped hiccuping!!

Try It!
