Hi. Cronobacter could get into the formula if: You place formula lids or scoops on contaminated surfaces, like countertops or sinks, and they later touch the formula. So follow proper hygeine. Dont worry

1.Make sure you are feeding the baby with a katori and spoon instead of bottle feeding. 2. Formula milk composition is the closest to human milk. So, the next best option after breast milk indeed. 3. Make sure to boil the utensils for 20 min. After use. 4. The amount of water and formula milk should be accurate.
