Works for sneezing too.

3. Holding my breath while drinking nine sips of water

I guess I heard that one from one of my elementary school, teachers, but it works for me

4. I sit down, take a deep breath, and HOLD IT as long as I can. Blow it out, and repeat!

It has never failed me. And you don't need anything else. I believe that holding your breath stretches the nerve and helps it relax. Of course, the sooner you do this, the faster the hiccups go away.

7. This has worked multiple times for other people

I hear them hiccuping. And I pull out my wallet and show them a single dollar bill. And I tell them “ if you hiccup one more time, I will give you this dollar”.

No more hiccups.

Has worked every time.

14. From a bartender:

Put a drop of bitters on the tongue. Hiccups stop, instantly!
