My Childrens was the same when he was young.I let him settle in for a few weeks and then started getting him out for 10 to 15 mins every nite. I wouldnt actually hold him at first but just let him crawl around on my legs while i was sitting down. I think that helps them get used to being around you. After a few nites of doing that i would start to handle him a bit and let him just crawl through my hands. After a few weeks he was fine and now handles really well. Just make sure u dont make any fast movements rite in front of his head and dont restrain him just let him crawl through ur hands and basically go where he wants.Im sure he will settle down after a week or 2. Good luck keep us updated.
