There are many causes of hiccups in newborn babies
- The baby suckled milk too quickly or just finished crying, the mother continued to feed, thereby causing the baby to choke, making it difficult to suckle and eventually leading to hiccups.
- Not only milk, many babies also swallow air while suckling, causing the stomach to become too full, stimulating the diaphragm to constrict to create hiccups. This is quite common in bottle-fed babies.
- Babies with indigestion can also cause hiccups.
- When the temperature drops suddenly, the air entering the lungs will make the baby cold and cause hiccups.
- A nursing mother who eats too many spicy and spicy foods can also cause hiccups, because these spices will be "accessed" through breast milk to her baby.
