Hiccups on laugh
My 9 months old baby gets the hiccups literally everytime he laughs out loud. I love his laugh..but I feel so bad when I get him to laugh only to make him get the hiccups..does any other babies do this or it is really a matter of concern? Please suggest me. Thanks

Hiccups come due to the irritation of the phrenic nerve below the diaphragm so many a times if there is any increase in abdominal pressure it may cause hiccups
