Arms, Groups, and Intervention: (1) Breast milk-fed group: fed with human breast milk; (2) Breast Milk Simulated Formula Group：fed with breast milk simulated infant formula (Ruibuen®Kieember, Phase I); (3) Traditional Formula Group: fed with traditional infant formula (Ruibuen®Yashili, Phase I). Intervention Duration: 90 days. Visits: 1month and 3month old. Outcome measures: (1)Biochemical detection of feces (total fat, fatty acids, calcium, nitrogen);(2)Stool characteristics (frequency, color, volume, and stool consistency);(3)Anthropometric parameters (body length, body weight, and head circumferences);(4)Temperament and adaptive behavior;(5)Gut microbiota;(6)General health and wellbeing;(7)concomitant medications and adverse events.
