My 14 year old son often hiccups in his
sleep. I have to wake him to get them to
stop. Is this something to be concerned
about?

I dont think you should be concerned.Its
not putting his life at risk. People all
have different sleeping habits. My
boyfriend sleeps with 3 fingers in his
mouth,and doesnt suffocate hisself. So I
dont think hiccups is something to be
concerned about . Maybe you should make
him drink something hot before he
sleeps?
Has he done this all his life?

No he has not had this occur until about a
month ago. I wondered if it was related
to not breathing correctly at night.

Maybe you should check with the doctor.
Or if you have a stethescope put it on his
back and make him take long deep breaths
if its something to do with his breathing
you will hear it through the stethescope.
If your worried id check with the
doctor.
Good luck.
