A character is seen in the fetal position before or after going through some kind of "rebirth": legs folded against the body, head close to the knees and arms crossed in front of the legs. This is of course highly symbolic, this position being one of an unborn child. The character will also often be nude (for reasons like Naked on Revival or Out-of-Clothes Experience), and sometimes floating (in a void or liquid) to better deliver the analogy with a baby in the mother's womb. Compare Symbolic Serene Submersion. If the character is indeed naked, the fetal position is also a pragmatic excuse for not showing any naughty bits, especially if filmed from the front. Here, "rebirth" is taken in a very general sense and can mean many things: ascending to a higher plane of existence, experiencing a great revelation, going through a massive physical transformation, healing after a very serious mangling, waking up after hibernation, being removed from storage, etc. It can even be an actual birth if preceding a Reincarnation, or in the case of an Artificial Human or Clone (frequently seen floating in some People Jars). To be clear, this trope doesn't concern every instance of a character curling in a fetal position, most likely after a traumatic event — the latter being Troubled Fetal Position. Fetal Position Rebirth is used when illustrating a symbolic (re)birth or major upheaval for the personage. |

X-Men: In The Brood Saga, Storm commits suicide by blowing up her space capsule when she discovers the baby Brood Queen hatching within her. She gets better because one of the space-whales the Brood Mind Rape with drugs and turns into living ships (the nascent space-whale prophet, in fact) rescues her and psychically merges with her because it's Just a Kid and needs a responsible adult to look after it. She flits around psychically for a while, the reason being her actual body is curled up in the fetal position inside the space whale to regenerate. | |

In the space survival thriller Gravity, shortly after Matt Kowalski (George Clooney) refuses Ryan Stone (Sandra Bullock)'s Take My Hand!, Stone finally reaches the International Space Station airlock and its promise of momentary safety and oxygen. Floating in the airlock in her underthings, she assumes this pose after stripping out of her space suit. The moment represents her transition from Kowalski's helpless cargo to self-rescuing Damsel out of Distress. Justified to some extent, since this is the natural position that a relaxed body assumes in zero-g. | |

Naomi from Skins, in the S4 finale when having a massive emotional epiphany about Emily. Considering the major themes of the fourth series revolved around death and rebirth (well, Freddie kinda missed out on the rebirth part), it was probably inevitable that there'd be one of these scenes at some point. | |

In the remake of The Day the Earth Stood Still, Klaatu is injured and taken to a human lab for treatment. The scientists cut away the placenta suit he's wearing, revealing a partially developed human form underneath. Once the suit is completely removed, he curls into a fetal position to finish the transformation into Keanu Reeves. | |

The manga adaptation of Breath of Fire IV explicitly has this in its opening pages with Ryu. Justified in that it's a literal birth/reincarnation (yeah, it's complicated).note Specifically, Ryu is the temporally-displaced Literal Split Personality of 600-year-old God-Emperor Fou-lu. It turns out the empire that originally summoned the god buggered up the summoning. | |

When painfully roused by enemy forces deploying depth charges against her, a gradual-zoom in on her is shown for a full minute while her "I don't want to die" grows from a faint whisper into an anguished scream. She has a vision of her mother, then violently explodes from the lake. | |

"Crystal Flash", a hidden ability in Super Metroid that restores all of Samus' energy tanks at the expense of her ammunition, does this. When used, Samus goes into a fetal position, gets surrounded by a sphere of energy and her suit temporarily disappears. To be honest, the cool animation is probably the main reason to ever use this ability, as it's not very practical. Although it has its usefulness: as your ammo counter (255 missiles at max) is a lot smaller than your life counter (1699 with max energy tanks), and it'd be faster to reload than it is to have to get back to some places after you die. | |

Nu-13's Arcade Mode ending in BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger has Nu herself in one of these. Given the context of "waking from a dream," it's almost impossible to say what the character is being reborn into, if anything. It's really artful, in that Mind Screwy, Everyone Is Jesus in Purgatory kind of way. The Yandere mumbling makes it unsettling, though. | |

Berserk: When Griffith ascends to the Godhand, he takes this position as his body is reconstructed. Probably the darkest example here. Happens again when Griffith is literally reborn into the human world through Guts and Casca's miscarried child, which just so happened to be tainted with evil because he had previously raped Casca while she was pregnant. Also, Jill took on a fetal position of rebirth when she almost took up Rosine's offer of becoming one of her demonic elf creatures. |

Alice in the first three Resident Evil movies. In the first one, it's where she's knocked out when fumes come into the shower. In the second film she's being resurrected (or cloned, hard to tell) at the end. In the third one, there's hundreds of clones of her, all in the fetal position in water bubble suspension things. Naturally, she's bare-ass naked in all of these, and while her hands do hide her bits, she always moves them by the time the scene is over. | |

At the start of Princess Maker 2, you get a heavenly child who is being sent to the world of mortals by her guardian deity. She is shown from a front fetal position as she is floating down in the light and to you, seemingly forgetting everything that happened in her ten years of life in Heaven. Since it's not really that kind of game, it's artistically done and you don't actually see anything. | |

A sinister example happens in the movie version of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. After Lord Voldemort (in the shape of a horrific homonculus) is leveled in the mixture that will resurrect him fully, the cauldron dissolves and his misshapen body is seen in a fetal position while he's growing back to full power. | |

In The Elephant Man, the title character has to assume this position when he sleeps, due to his oversized head and weak neck. The novel is all about him undergoing a "rebirth" as he realizes his identity as a human, and not a monster. Sadly, this proves his undoing; he finally decides that he should sleep on his back and stretched out as a normal person, and his neck breaks in the night. | |

Sailor Moon: Towards the end of the first anime series, the souls of Princess Serenity, Endymion and the Senshi are seen like this and encased inside bubbles, as a dying Queen Serenity uses the Silver Crystal to make sure they will reincarnate on Earth. Sailor Moon's "Crisis, Make Up" transformation into Super Sailor Moon begins with her in this position inside a cocoon before she bursts out in a flurry of butterflies and transforms. In general, Super Sailor Moon is heavily associated with butterflies because they symbolize her "rebirth" into a new, stronger form. In the second Sailor Moon Eternal movie, Hotaru's transformation into Sailor Saturn features a fetal position. Sailor Saturn's domain is life, death, and rebirth, so this trope is present. |

The first episode of Firefly, when River comes out of frozen sleep. (The scene, by the by, is a shot-for-shot homage to the sequence from Outlaw Star.) In this case, the symbolism of rebirth is River finally escaping from the Academy and returning to something resembling normal life. The scene is complete with clear metaphors for birthing pains, as she starts screaming immediately afterward. In another bit of symbolism, River adopts the same pose at the end of Serenity, as the title ship is taking off into a new day, once she has finally begun to really overcome her own mental illnesses. | |

Metroid: "Crystal Flash", a hidden ability in Super Metroid that restores all of Samus' energy tanks at the expense of her ammunition, does this. When used, Samus goes into a fetal position, gets surrounded by a sphere of energy and her suit temporarily disappears. To be honest, the cool animation is probably the main reason to ever use this ability, as it's not very practical. Although it has its usefulness: as your ammo counter (255 missiles at max) is a lot smaller than your life counter (1699 with max energy tanks), and it'd be faster to reload than it is to have to get back to some places after you die. In Metroid: Other M, the opening cinematic has Samus in a fetal position as a small child. After a few seconds we see Samus being lifted off the ground by the baby metroid. |
