Trans fluid might still be cold. Put it in and out of first and second a few times and then try reverse when it happens.

Let it warm up. You may have to double clutch it.

Every once in a while mine will do the same I just keep the clutch in and tap the throttle a little and it clicks in. I only have about 5100 miles on my car I just figured it was the new needing to be wore off.
