colostrum
Colostrum.
It's called 'Colostrum'.
Parturition (or birth) is called caving, however, the first milk is called colostrum. This is the same in all mammals including humans.
Its not colostrum coming from your breasts. Colostrum comes out after delivery and first time of breast feeding. Take a pregnancy test for $8.00 and stop wondering.
usually after the seventh month
Women who just delivered a baby within 14 days produce colostrum. There is no "best" colostrum.
It is called Colostrum, very nutrient rich for the baby. Let the babynurse and your milk will come in really well!
For the most part, horse colostrum is not commercially available. I would suggest checking with your equine veterinarian to see if there is a colostrum bank that you could purchase some from.
NOTHING can or should replace Colostrum when feeding a newborn calf. You MUST feed a new baby calf colostrum within 24 hours after it is born. There is nothing man-made or similar than can replace colostrum.
Colostrum "changes" into milk 24 to 72 hours after parturition.
Yes. The only reason your body is producing colostrum is because of the pregnancy hormone
