Liz's interpretation may be correct in which case it would read:

Il est difficile de faire reprendre le veau par la vache (allaitement) en cas de vêlage dystocique.

For Liz, vache enceinte will be used only by non specialists.
You shoud use the term gestative foe non human mammals.
In the same way, vêlage is used and not accouchement.

Il me semble que la bonne traduction serait peut être entre les deux. Suite à un vêlage dystocique la vache aurait des difficultés à être remise en gestation sa biologie et physiologie étant encore perturbées/non calmées (pour utiliser le mot de Liz).

Explanation:
Sorry for the poor French, but this is the meaning.

I don't even know if you can use "enceinte" when talking about cows!

I'll try that again.

Il est difficile que les vaches dystociques se calment de nouveau quand elles sont enceintes.

Good luck!

I see you can say "vaches enceintes"

FRESH COW PROBLEMS
The “fresh cow” segment of the
reproductive highway is a pothole-
filled stretch of road. Cows with
postpartum metabolic disorders,
such as milk fever, ketosis and dis-
placed abomasums, are much less
likely to settle early in the breeding
period than “normal” cows. Other
abnormalities, such as retained pla-
centa, difficult calving, metritis,
cystic ovaries or poor body condi-
tion, are also associated with

  -> "In calf" = pregnant. These cows may have already had a calf so that if they are pregnant again (in calf) they will be somewhat anxious/difficult to settle, as any mother would be, n'est-ce pas?//I am not going your way at all, Drmanu.//C'est vrai!
