Hiccups!

I must say I never expected a baby to get the hiccups so much.  Summer has them at least 4 or 5 times a day...maybe even more.  I haven't been counting to see how many times it really is.  Sometimes she wakes up with them; sometimes she goes to sleep with them.  I can remember the last time she had them while I was still pregnant.  I woke up Thursday morning (May 4) around 5:00 with her hiccupping.  I told Clint to feel my belly because it might be the last time she had the hiccups while she was still in me....and it was.  Now she has the hiccups every time I turn around.  The other day she had them, and I started feeding her.  Clint told me not to feed her until they went away because he was scared it might hurt her.  But, I fed her anyway and they went away while she was eating.  He made it a point to ask the pediatrician about it when we went on Thursday.  The pediatrician said it was okay and would not hurt her.  He didn't seem surprised when we told him she was hiccuping all the time, so it must be normal for babies.
