Brief Summary
There is a high prevalence of FGID among infants : 30 % for regurgitations, 20 % for colitis , 15 % for functional constipation.This represents a frequent motive for pediatrics consultation : 23 to 28 % of medical consultations in this population are consequent to gastrointestinal symptoms among infants aged under 4 months old. This can lead to numerous inappropriate or unrecommended medication prescriptions. Currently, fecal calprotectin threshold are only validated by science societies for children aged 5 years old and more. This study aims to quantify the difference of fecal calprotectin between a population of infants for whom no FGID has been finally detected, and a population of infants for whom FGID have been detected during the gastro-pediatrics consultation, , in order to later determine wether it is possible to validate a threshold in a population of infants aged under 4 months old.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Infants aged under 4 months old benefiting from a special gastro-pediatrics consultation
- FGID arm : infant with one or several FGID detected
- Free from FGID arm : infant without any FGID detected
You may not qualify if:
- Born before 37 week of amenorrhea.
- Neurologic failure, heart failure, respiratory failure, hepatic failure, pancreatic failure, renal failure, cancer or hematological malignancy.
- History of enteral feeding by tube (nasogastric, nasojejunal, gastrostomy, gastrostomy-jejunostomy, jejunostomy) or parenteral feeding.
- History of digestive tract surgery
- Suspicion of Immunoglobulin E-mediated Cow's Milk Protein Allergy (CMPA): anaphylactic-type reaction observed within a few minutes to 2 hours after ingestion of cow's milk protein, such as pruritus, erythema, angioedema, intense abdominal pain, projectile vomiting, acute diarrhea, bronchospasm, faintness, loss of consciousness, arterial hypotension or even anaphylactic shock.
