yes during teething phase kids suffer from loss of appetite and they tend to reject food intake.
you should not try to force feed your baby and give whatever food he's liking to avoid any nutritional deficiencies.

Then gently stimulate your baby's top lip with the teat to encourage her to open her mouth. Feed your baby on demand and cuddle her in a semi-upright position.
