Stopping Hiccups

My son has had a problem with Hiccups from day one.
I found something that stopps them immediately.

I stick a spoon into pickle juice and have him lick the spoon. You have to give them something to drink to get the taste out of their mouth. They don't like it but it stops the Hiccups instantly.

At this age, that's safer than the remedy I use for myself. A spoonful of creamy peanut butter! My husband thought I was crazy until he tried it. It works every time (although rarely I need a second spoonful).

I love the pickle juice remedy I am going to try that. What I have always done - which is a bit length to describe - but I take a drink of water(don't swallow yet), bend over with your head down, then swallow, count to three and come up. Repeat this 3X. It works for me and my son!

For 99% of people the pickle juice works, and it is instant. Mosty kids don't like the taste but it works. I thought it kinda weard when I first heard of it, then I tried it and was amaised.
When you try this have a drink of watter or juice ready because most kids don't like the taste.

    I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
