How often do you get hiccups, and what actually makes them stop?

[AviatorTom]

This morning, after breakfast, I got the hiccups (Hiccough alternate spelling). It lasted about 3 minutes and stopped on its own. It was the first time in several months that I've had them.

How often do you get the hiccups?

Do you do anything special to make them stop?

[LiamS95]

Very rarely do I ever get the hiccups and drinking a lass of water backwards helps. For those that don't know what drinking a glass of water backwards means... you put your lips on the opposite side of the glass to where you'd usually place your lips and tip the glass away from you rather then towards you.

Very rarely, can't remember the last time.

The only known cure is massage of the anal passage and no I'm not joking

I get at least a couple of times a week. I think it's because my food is having a hard time going through my digestive system.
I just keep drinking water.

[molonski2]

Never..

Bcoz very easy to stop , take a large glass of water , hold your nose tightly while drinking slowly ( tight )
Take the water though , large sip..

While holding that nose tight

All over my friend , you will thank me , but you must do correctly GUARANTEED.

I hate them , I hate hearing them.. this is 100 % .

[DishLady]

I haven't had them in a VERY long time... I don't know.

[exitseven]

I have not had them in years. I used to drink water and hold my breath but it was just time that made them go away.

[OlderAndWiser]

Maybe once every five years. Generally, trying to relax will make them go away.

[lilBigPotato]

At most once every other year. I just do the tongue trick it usually helps.

[Shiprex]

Not so much now but do now and again. I stop them by having controlled deep breathing

[msc545]

Very rarely, thank God. Although now that I've thought about this and answered it, I'll probably get them more often.

[Nikki1989]

Very rarely.

[BadApple69]

Time…. Only time.

[DJB72]

Rarely.
