Pregnant: What do her hiccups feel like to me?

This is my first pregnancy. She was moving up a storm for like 15 minutes straight this am (woke me up). Got me to thinking...what does it feel like to me if she gets the hiccups? What is the difference as far as feeling the norm of her "move"?

The hiccups are just little "bumps" in your tummy. There's a specific pattern just like when we get them.

You will just feel consistent movements for a period of time, like Djan said, kinda like bumps in your belly and it will be in a pattern. The further along you get the easier it is to tell the difference.

hi there so easy to distuinguish there too cute it feels like someone if flicking you on the in side of you tummy and there much faster than ours and as your baby grows they feel like little jumps and you may beable to see your tummy jump just as you would do if you got them

My son had hiccups all the time when I was pregnant with him!  It was so funny..and like the other girls said, it was definitely a different kind of feel than when he's kicking.  Your belly will bounce in a hiccup pattern, versus just random kicks and punches all over the place like their normal movement.  My son also had hiccups quite a lot as a baby and even now at 14 months.  I've heard the more they have in the womb, the more they have outside the womb, too.  They don't seem to really bother him, though, so that's good.  I'm almost 25 weeks along with my daughter and she hasn't had any yet that I know of...but I think it was a little later with my son when I started to feel them.

Lol I think she had the hiccups then this morning. It was fast & steady movements. Bump bump bump...kinda felt like my heartbeat but it wasn't fast enough to be my heartbeat (even though my heartrate is fast). Like I said, it went on for several minutes. It was different than her normal moving pattern. It was the coolest but it woke me up. Lol :) Pregnancy is so awesome! Sure there are down moments, but feeling your baby is the greatest!!!
