Sorry to hear of your battle with them...they are aweful...hope this helps...

If someone is with you (of if you can contortion yourself) have them plug your ears. You then plug your nose and drink as much of a glass of water as you can without taking a breath. I promise you, they WILL BE GONE!!!

Good luck

[hmsram]

Ok I went try the water but had no one to hold my ears so just tried it holding my nose didnt work I did hicup between drinks and almost drown .... Thought that would of helped but nope

[Juliannaluv]

Drink water out of a glass while hanging your head upside down.

Don't stand up straight until after you've swallowed!


I SWEAR it works for me

[jenimadison]

Try this...take one arm and wrap it over your head so as much of your ears of covered/plugged as can be. Then plug your nose and try drinking again. I've have success with this, though it's difficult and not comfortable.

I had the hiccups TWICE today! And I never get them!

I just breathe really deep from my diaphragm for about 5 min.

I laid my head far back over the sink so as I was drowning my self I would not wet the floor

Drank lots of water while holding my breath thought that would help with the nose thingy LOL

They were gone Tummys a bit full but hiccups are gone

Glad we could help.

Maren, next time try the drinking water upside down thing. it only takes a couple swallows & they are all gone!!!!

[MLM77721]

the breathing technique works fine for me too

[Pipanella]

I just hold my breath until I just absolutely can't anymore. Since hiccups are spasms of the diaphragm, which controls breathing, I think that's why holding your breath works, and for the same reason drinking water upside down works. You can't breathe and drink at the same time, and trying to do it upside down takes longer and more concentration, so it all interrupts those darn spasms!

That's my theory, anyway. LOL.

how the heck do you drink water upside down? Doesn't it go up your nose?

[tlspiegel]

Doh... yeah? What's up (or down) with that? lol
