I would check her teats and make sure shes got flow...she should start soon...you could nudge them a bit...but she should be fine!!

I like to see them nursing in the first 20 minutes or so, but an hour isn't the end of the world. If he is standing well, you are most of the way there, just get out her plugs and move him close to the right area, see if he bumps on her. If he isn't showing any sign of nursing, mix a teaspoon of corn syrup in with a couple teaspoons of mom's milk and syringe feed the baby with a 3cc syringe, see if that sparks his interest.
I normally help the baby find the nipple the firs time.. I hold him under and tickle his nose w/ the nipple... I normally dont touch the babies head to get them on the nipple cause they normally fight that just put him under,, reach behind the doe and nudge the nipple at him.
congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
