Secondary objectives are to describe the modalities of feeding before, during and after consuming the RIF, to describe the growth of children who have consumed a RIF for at least 1 month, on the basis of anthropometric data collected during the first year of life. As a second intention, this study also aims to monitor the evolution of child's digestive and allergic symptoms, if any, and the sociodemographic characteristics of the infant's family.
