What if my baby is pulling on his ear? Is that due to teething?

It’s possible that a baby might have some ear discomfort when he’s getting his molars, but molars more commonly come in during the toddler years. (The first set arrives around 13 to 18 months, and the second set comes in when your child is two to two and a half.) Tugging on ears could just be your baby playing, or it could be a sign of an ear infection. Teething coincides with the age when babies put their hands and toys into their mouths all the time, picking up a lot more germs. (And ear infections can result from a common cold, as fluid builds up.)

Yes, it could be due to teething, but could also point to an ear infection. Look for other signs such as ear discharge or pain when you touch his ear. If he cries and you feel that something is wrong, take him for a checkup

It could be due to teething. If it comes with a fever, and severe discomfort with a lot of crying then it could be a ear infection. Just take note teething may cause a mild fever as well.
