I've found that at that age there's little that can be done. My now 6-month old was like that and only his Mummy could settle him. You mention bonding, but you'll find that it will take time and this trauma is just part of getting there. Have you tried an item of his mother's clothing so he has the smell at least?

Also when he is calm and settled, start getting into little games with him, i.e. peek-a-boo etc or showing him new things while using a soothing voice. Often, the tone of voice is enough to calm kids down which they associate with particular games. Otherwise just bide your time, in 2-3 months time you'll be wondering what all the fuss was about.
