        <description><![CDATA[Take a deep breath...hold it a few seconds...now swallow that same breath of air.   If it did not work the first time, you probably did not swallow the air completely.  You swallow the air like you would swallow food or water.  It will always work. It is simple: When they scare you, sometimes you take in air.... when you drink water non stop you take in air... and when you hold your breath you sometimes swallow the air with out realizing it.  That is why sometimes these techniques actually work.  I am now 38,  I figured this technique out as a teen. I've worked with kids for over 20 years and it has never failed.  One or two tries and they are gone.share this]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[is to give the victum, er sufferer, a half glass of water and get them to drink it, in 5-7 swallows, while placing your fingers in their ears.  The trick is to insert a finger just large enough to fill the entance to the canal so that when they swallow you can feel the changing size of the canal.  The snug fit actually restricts some of the movements in the canal and relieves the nerves that are causing the hiccups.A finger too large doesn't get in deep enough and too small of a finger doesn't restrict the movement enough.]]></description>

PLACE YOUR INDEX FINGERS IN YOUR EARS, USE YOUR THUMBS TO COVER YOUR NOSE AND TAKE A DEEP BREATH AND HOLD IT IN FOR 15 SECONDS AND THAT SHOULD CLEAR THE HICCUPS. IF IT DOES NOT WORK THE 1ST TIME TRY IT AGAIN. IT WORKS ALL THE TIME FOR ME.]]></description>
