hiccups:this is silly but please tell your story...

Tonight Phil and I had Zombies. If you don't know what it is, it's a Bacardi drink and a weird blue mix. He had one drink and started hiccuping. I tried scaring him, but we only ended up laughing...we held our breath together and gulped air in to fill our lungs as full as possible. An hour later, he was fed up...

In the end, I gave him a teaspoon of sugar. Told him to hold it in his mouth until it was wet but still granular...then swallow.

It worked!

LOL, another half dozen zombies and he'd forget about the hiccups! or atleast they'd seem alot funnier!

I always tell my kids they have to stand on their head and drink a glass of water. Its nonsense ofcourse but entertaining to watch!

I wonder if it worked simply because he beleived you? kind of placebo effect? maybe just the swallowing?
