Default Oil pressure reading

My 300e has a slow oil leak at the rear main seal and possible at the head gasket. I am closely monitoring the oil level until I can afford the repairs.

My question is this: why does my oil pressure read 2-3 bar when I first start it up in the morning, but then drops to 0 bar within a couple of minutes?
