Unfortunately there aren't any sure fire ways to get rid of hiccups especially at that age. The only thing you can do is give him a bottle, The drinking and breathing combination can relax the diaphram. The one good thing is that it means his body is growing and his lungs are expanding!! Hope this helps!!!!

My son always got the hiccups after every feed, what i did was wait 5/10 minutes and if they had not gone away i would give him a little drink of water and if that did not work pat him on the back. Most baby's do get the hiccups it means they are thriving. They do get the crankys after awhile but he will grow out of it.

The only thing I can suggest is If your baby has the hiccups, hold her upright against your shoulder and pat her back gently, nursing also helps cure them or some type of liquids in your case milk, formula

Some say babies get hiccups due to reflux, if your baby doesn't have reflux then don't worry about it. He/She will grow out of it.

Try giving him some gripe water or if you breastfeed, put him on your breast for a bit. Make sure he burps well after every feeding.
