  Baby hiccups may be caused by catching a cold. If the baby is just born and the parents have no experience in adding clothes to the baby, the baby is prone to catching a cold and experiencing hiccups. Parents are advised to add or remove some clothing for their babies, and cover them thicker when they sleep at night to prevent them from getting cold and burping.

  If the baby has poor digestion, they may also experience hiccups because their various functions have not fully developed and they cannot digest too much food. Babies may experience vomiting of milk. It is recommended to reduce the amount of feeding given to the baby, increase the frequency of feeding, and drink more water. This way, the baby's digestive system can rest and the hiccups will gradually improve.

  The baby drinks milk too quickly and may burp even if they swallow air. If this is the reason, parents should not be too nervous. After breastfeeding, patting the baby's back and burping will improve. Do not breastfeed your baby after they have cried, as this increases the likelihood of hiccups. If the baby's hiccups do not improve, you can go to the hospital to ask the doctor for relevant examinations.
