I've seen but not participated
I have been present at a couple of foalings when I was growing up. One was attended by a vet, one was just my grandma and me. The vet did all the work the first time but it was cool to watch. I was a bit grossed out but I was only about 9. The second time was when I was around 12 and my grandma did it by herself as it was the middle of the night and a surprise so the vet couldn't get there. I mostly watched that time, too, but my grandma knew just what to do. She had to reach in and turn the foal but the baby was fine (momma, too).
