Our baby was caught "smiling" in the high resolution ultrasound a few months before birth. We thought it was a very cute image of her face looking directly out at the ultrasound but we did think it was just a fluke, she couldn't actually be smiling.
We have a photo a few weeks after birth where she is curled up on my chest in exactly the same position and she is smiling, and it is exactly the same facial contour as we saw in the ultrasound. That's just her face.

He was born with his hand on his face—the pressure left a big handprint on his face for a day or so. And he still liked to be in that position at a few months.
