Pediatrician 's  Response
You have not mentioned what milk she is getting. If only breastfed it is unlikely there is any problem. Is there any change in the frequency or consistency of motion? If yes it is better to get her examined. Is her weight gain normal? Occasional hiccup is normal. If you giving her formula make sure it is reconstituted properly.
