My son is eating less and taking in time

2024-06-28 16:50:11
Hi,my son is now 11 months old and we observed that from the last few days he is taking time to eat and hold the food in mouth. He eats food if we entertain him but still as compared to till 10.5 months, he is eating less due to holding food in mouth and then doesn't want to eat due to longer sitting. Is this normal???
