A foal
Well the mother will give birth and will lay down on the ground for a while, then their foal will try and stand up. After a few minutes the mother will get up and lick her foal, then you just wait and watch the foal grow! :) Sunny Erics Horse vet specialist.

do you mean the foal or the dam? usually the foal would try to stand up, snapping the imbilicall cord, leaving the foal non-attached to his/her mother. the mother would then lick her foal dry

There are many reasons that a foal may fail to stand post foaling. Normally, they stand fairly quickly (within an hour of birth). If the foal is not progressing the owner must determine the cause or contact a professional for help.
