I gotta say (at the risk of having my head chopped off here), that I'd tell
this mom to just go ahead and nurse the baby ASAP! Remind her to drink a lot
of water so she's well-hydrated & "flushing" and get on with it; I'd say
that at 6 wks the baby is less likely to be harmed by whatever's left &
getting through the milk than by formula, or by monkeying around trying feed
the baby in some unfamiliar way & getting into the spiral of balkiness.
