Usually when the baby has an ear infection they do..... that or they have a diaper rash.

Yes, they don't know how to keep their nose clear, so they are breathing through their mouths instead. With a bottle in their mouth, it is going to be hard to breathe.
Help him out & use the nasil aspirator-- when I took my son to the doctor, they showed me the proper way to use it (it's going to be difficult): You might need an extra set of hands to keep baby still; drop in a couple drops of saline solution (if he has dry boogers); while holding the other nostril closed, suck out the boogers; repeat on the other side.

yes - just like when you have a cold things don't taste the same and not to mention you just don't feel good. give them their favorite foods when they are sick and that will ensure they eat which will help them recover sooner.

duh, how do you feel when you are sick. You don't always feel like eating. Plus it's hard to breath and eat when sick
