Well it won't work for this batch but for future reference:

So forget all those OTHER cures, this one's the REAL DEAL!!

No more trying to find someone to scare you, no more drinking out of the

other side of a glass, no more breathing into a paper bag!!

Now kids, you, too, can cure your hiccups!! And *I* am gonna tell you

how!

It's simple, it's easy, it's fun, it WORKS!! And best of all, it's FREE!!

Here's how ya do it: Take a deep breath and hold it as long as you can...

AFTER THE VERY FIRST HICCUP!! That way, the pattern doesn't get

established. Two hiccups get by ya, it don't work!

Start today! Be the first on your block to try it! Never suffer through

several minutes of hiccups again!

Bye kids!!

They stopped a while back and now they're BACK!

Valerie I tried that holding your breath thing and it didn't work. Maybe I did it wrong

Help me people!!!

put your left foot in and shake it all about

that usually works

stick bananas in your ears then knock on your neighbors door and say "I have a problem"

"I cant stop hiccuping"

I've been frantically looking for all the ugly people at my office to get a good scare but so far it hasn't worked. I guess it's missing the element of surprise :rolleyes:

Wooo !! I was worried you still had them I was going to call in the medic..!!

jaggedlittlegirl · Post by **jaggedlittlegirl** » Tue Aug 08, 2006 11:03 pm

Well they're back! Unbelievable...on and off since like 2 am last night! Guess they're making up for lost time. I can't even remember the last time I had hiccups.

Have you tried eating a spoonful of sugar or another thing you can try is drinking a spoonful of lemon juice or vinegar (ugh!, think I would rather have the hiccups!)

I usually try Valerie's suggestion of holding my breath and that usually works well for me, have you tried that?

My mum always told me that I got hiccups from gulping my food down too quickly, have you been feasting????:D

LOL nah. Actually it al started with a can of club soda. I got thirsty so I opened one up. That started it, then it was on and off all day. At night they came back when I put my feet on the ground, I was barefoot and the floor ws cold. Dunno if that did it but...Anyway, they're gone now so I'm happy.
