Just a Few ?'s
Posted: 02-24-07 16:00pm

I was wondering if anyone has a trick for curing baby hiccups? I'm not really sure if there is anything you can do for it but if you guys have some tips that would be great. Brayden has been getting them several times a day and I feel so bad because I can't help him..

Also I have had to switch to pumping and feeding him a bottle, we were simply having too many troubles with breastfeeding. So, now I was wondering how many ounces should a newborn be eating? I know it won't be the same for all babies but i feel like he eats a TON!

Thanks for any help..

i dont know about how much, but as for the hiccups, they dont hurt, hiccups dont bother babies like they do adults so there is no reason to feel bad, ive heard they are actually good for him
