Yes, as they may not be comfortable. One other reason could be they get more playful at this stage, too.
Hello,
Yes, sometimes they do feed less. It could be psychological from the pain.
Occasionally, but from 6-12 months they gain less rapidly than from 1-6 months, so they sometimes slow down on their eating. Watch for fever or worsening. If so, he may need to be checked for an ear infection.
