I'm still not sure the rejection was real. You may have been fussy or stoic or just not met your mother's expectations in some way. She may have been overwhelmed and uninformed raising you separate from her husband and family, and unable to cope. You may have picked up on her behavior and mirrored it, or you may truly have been frightened and on your guard. Whatever the real truth is, however you responded to your mother, it was in no way appropriate for you to bear the burden for the space between you two!
