Actually in this case, I would strongly tell or advice the mother to breast feed the baby by slowly explaining the importance of breast milk feeding to baby to her, even after this mother is strongly reluctant, then i will surely go for the approach of other natural nutritions or milk, then order the mother to feed this to baby which is fully safe.
