Leave the cow with her calf for about 24 hours. If, in the morning you find the calf still hasn't suckled yet (you can tell because the cow's udder will look quite full), you may have to hobble her to get her to keep from kicking the calf as it tries to suckle. Make sure the cow is in a squeeze first through so she won't be fighting you if you're trying to put her baby on her. If the calf isn't weak, it should be easy for the calf to find a teat and start suckling. Try the perfume method: put perfume in the cow's nostrils and squirt some all over the calf's back (don't forget the tail). This should work, as the perfume will make the cow accept the calf easier. Leave them be for a period of time, and if you see the calf is accepted, then that's all the better.
