How much is 1 formula scoop?

long story short:
In & out of the ER twice this weekend. Went to the Dr. this morning. I'm on a BUNCH of medications so I can't nurse. This is my first time giving dd formula and it says to use the enclosed scoop but there isn't one. And it doesn't say how much a scoop is.
I assume it's 1 tablespoon.
HELP!!!!!!

Re: How much is 1 formula scoop?
Nope! Don't assume it's a tablespoon.
One scoop = one scoop. AKA the scoop that comes with the formula. Don't use another measuring tool; only use the scoop that comes with it.
ETA: There isnt an enclosed one?! Hmm... Dig more, sometimes it's deeper. Otherwise call the manufacturer and ask. All the scoops are different sizes so you can't assume it's a tablespoon.
Are you sure the scoop isn't in the lid? Buried in the powder?
I think it's more than 1T but I could be wrong.
The fvcking scoop was at the BOTTOM of the can!! WTF Similac!
Not sure exactally how much it is, sorry. Have you tried digging for the scoop with a knife? I feel like when we open a new can the scoop is always at the very bottom.
ETA: Sorry about the ER trips. I hope you're feeling better!!

A stowaway on board!
I hate that crap. I always keep an extra scoop handy when switching cans. The first time I had to dig I lost a bunch of powder because it spilled over the side.
Lol we just started DD on Similac 2 days ago so I was about to pull out the scoop and a measuring cup to let you know- glad you found it though! I hope the FF goes well!
