What does a mother horse do after shes had the baby horse?

The mother horse nudges the baby, to stimulate it and encourage it to stand. Over many minutes, the baby teaches itself to stand, at first wobbly and slowly gaining more balance. As soon as the baby can stand up without falling over, it quickly finds the momma's teat and begins to suckle. Having that first drink of momma's milk is important since the baby gets some immunization from diseases through its mother's milk.
