We consider corrections to the deuterium hyperfine structure originating from the two-photon exchange between the electron and the deuteron, with the deuteron excitations in intermediate states. In particular, the motion of the two intermediate nucleons as a whole is taken into account. The problem is solved in the zero-range approximation. The result is in good agreement with the experimental value of the deuterium hyperfine splitting.
