Can anyone with a head-down baby tell me where they feel the force of the hiccup? My baby is suspected to be breech, but I always feel her hiccuping very low down on my tummy, making me think that is where her head it???? Anyone with breech babies feel the hiccups up top?

My little one is head down - when she gets hic-cups I feel it mostly around my belly button, which is where her BUTT is, perhaps its because her head can't move very much (its wedged in pretty low) so the only way she can move is "up"

If I remember correctly, I felt the hiccups low, belly button level, with DS#1 even though he was definitely breech the whole time.

This time though, DS#2 is head down and the hiccups are much much lower, pelvic bone level.

My baby was already head down the first time I felt his hiccups, and he stayed that way the rest of the time. I always felt his hiccups very, very low in my pelvis.

this is interesting, I felt DD's hiccups in my upper abdomen, but then again she was really high up (think under rib cage high)

and very uncomfortable.

she hiccuped all the time too, it would have def nocked over a glass of something resting on my tummy

My baby is head down and I was feeling hiccups at the top of my tummy. Like the butt was jumping up or something. I could feel it with my hand and that was where my abdomen was "jumping." If I removed my hands and just tried to concentrate on the feeling, I could feel them down inside well below my belly button, but I didn't feel anything move on the surface down there. She hasn't had any hiccups in at least a week or so though.
