Because the baby will have learned how to nurse better by then, and colostrum is too concentrated to be healthy for an infant who is beginning to drink more milk. This is not the physiological reason for the colostrum to run out, but I don't think that's what you were asking.

How long must a calf be breast feed?
A calf should get colostrum within an hour or so after birth. Colostrum in the cow will be produced for the next 24 to 48 hours after the calf is born, but at eat time frame, the quality of the colostrum decreases, which means that if the calf receives its colostrum after 24 hours or more, its ability to survive, and grow into a healthy animal will be diminished. It's CRUCIAL that the calf gets his colostrum within a couple hours after birth, if he is not up and suckling (or has not been up and suckling) by the time you next check on mom and calf.
When the wax falls off a mares teats will she deliver soon?
Could be. This is a sign that birth is near. But sometimes a mare will 'wax up' and the milk will start to leak out. A little is fine but if too much leaks out the mare could be loosing the "colostrum". Colostrum is the first milk that the mare produces and it contains all the immunities for the new baby to keep him healthy. If it leaks out before the foal can drink it, he won't live long. They have to have the colostrum. If you think your mare is leaking too much colostrum call your vet.
What do you do if After a C-section your milk does not come in?
I have had this problem and my lactation consultant told me that I should just keep offering the breast to my baby. The stimulation of the baby suckling will trigger your milk flow. It may take a couple days, but in that time, you will have colostrum for the baby to drink. The colostrum is extremely healthy for baby, as it contains extra antibodies. You may need to breastfeed more often with the colostrum though because it is thinner than milk.
