What do you'll people do in order to get rid of hiccups when it happens all of a sudden??
I drink 2 to 3 sips of water and then its gone. I guess there are many different techniques people use to get rid of hiccups. Lets share them.
Also i heard with fright hiccups just disappear on its own. Is that really true?? Never experience such a situation.

There are different ways. In Cuba, they try this .....
Think of 7 old wemen, and by the time you think of them, they should be gone, because it takes you mind off of the hiccups. Good Luck !

much to my entertainment and delight, i have successfully used the "Fright" technique to cure my little sisters hiccups! Muahahaha! man i love scaring her lol!
i have noticed that when someone has the hiccups, just a little scare/startle doesnt work, you have to really scare them, enough to actually make give a small scream. otherwise the hiccups just come back fairly fast.
i was also always told growing up to Take a Deep Breath and Hold it while you SLOWLY count to 10, then exhale SLOWLY. that works fairly often. not always but often enough that i always suggest it first..then resort to scaring the crap outta ppl hahaha!
