Try this pressure point! There is a crevice between your nose and upper lip. Put pressure on it for about 30 seconds and they should go away!
If that doesnt work, try this:
Step 1:
Swallow 1 tsp. white table sugar, dry. A study found that this stopped hiccups immediately in 19 out of 20 people. Repeat up to 3 more times at 2-minute intervals if necessary.
Step 2:
Gulp down a glass of water if the sugar doesn't work.
Step 3:
Slowly eat a piece of dry bread.
Step 4:
Breathe in and out of a paper bag. Do not use a plastic bag under any circumstances, and don't do this longer than 1 minute.
Step 5:
Gargle with water
Step 6:
Repeat the above steps until your hiccups stop.
My experience with hiccups is if you can push the uvula (that thing that hangs down at the back of your throat) back just for a second, they quit.
