Child care specialists have debunked the long-held belief that placing a strand of thread on a baby’s head will stop hiccups, stating that the practice often shared as a home remedy by well-meaning family members, had no scientific basis. They warned that such practice could lead to unnecessary anxiety and distraction from more effective approaches, such as gentle burping or adjusting feeding positions. The paediatricians explained that hiccups in infants were a normal and often harmless reflex, caused by involuntary contractions of the diaphragm, stressing that these can occur for various reasons, including swallowing air during feeding, sudden changes in temperature, or even overfeeding. The experts said while hiccups usually resolved on their own without the need for any serious medical intervention, they emphasised that placing strands of thread on a baby’s head had no relationship with hiccups.
