Actual (reported)This study will follow 40 healthy, vaginally delivered infants that are primarily (\>/- 75%) breast fed and 40 infants that are exclusively formula fed for at least the first 4 months of life from birth until 12 month age. Visits - Subjects will be consented prior to delivery, visit 1. Subject will be seen if possible after delivery for instruction on stool collection and distribution of supplies, visit 2. Subject will be seen at 6 months of age post immunization, visit 3. Subject will be seen prior to 12 month visit. Study staff will contact via phone/email to collect information about feeding changes.
