I have had this happen before. For today, I would just keep offering it every few minutes or so. At pick up today, I would ask Mom to bring a baby blanket that she has used while feeding him.....try to get her scent on it. Then use it when you feed him. Put it across your front, leaving enough to bring up over him, near his face. Have her bring a new one daily, that she has used that AM or the evening before. This way, he still smells Mom while you are feeding him. It MIGHT help.
i was gonna suggest the same thing! i had a brand new 6 week old who had never had anyone other then momma hold him, let alone feed him. i had mom bring me a tshirt she slept in. i held it if front of me whenever i held or fed baby. mom was a little grossed out i was walking around w/ her dirty tshirt, but it did the trick. after two weeks of "Wearing" her shirt, he settled right in. he just turned one, and he's the best baby ever!!!!
