Britney Budhi, 29, of Bondi in the affluent eastern suburbs of Sydney, said that TikTok had chastised her for referring to her daughter Teyana as a “little monkey.” The mother, whose spouse is Burmese-Pakistani and whose boyfriend is of Indonesian-Italian origin, told FEMAIL that she is aware of the negative implications of calling someone by their primate name. In this instance, though, there is nothing wrong with it, as the term expresses her affection and love for her baby, who is now 5 months old. At the end of the day, she said, “My social network and my children.”
And I think she’s simply amazing; I’m really infatuated with her. I know all mothers are, but I think I’m more so,” she continued.
Teyana was delivered through caesarean section at 37 weeks and only weighed 2.2 kilograms. In order to “stay warm,” babies who are still so young frequently have hair covering their bodies, according to her mother. All infants have it in utero, and premature infants, particularly those who are young, frequently still do, according to the expert. She couldn’t have grown properly because I was naturally little; the doctors advised that she would do better outside. Before her parents could take her home, she spent the first two weeks of her life in the NICU, where she grew quickly and put on weight. And she has had her furry coat for almost two months, earning her the nickname “baby monkey” in a viral fashion.
She now has incredibly cute-looking leg hair. “It started falling out as she gained weight, but still on her shoulders and stuff.” Britney claimed that she also got a lot of encouraging responses despite the unfavorable remarks, some of which even suggested that the mother should shave her child. Many people have texted to say they, too, were born with hair and that their parents also refer to them as their baby monkeys, the woman added. People with anorexia nervosa, other severe eating disorders, and other eating disorders who “grow the same thing” have also gotten in touch with her.
When you need to put on weight, your body is attempting to defend itself by keeping you warm. Britney was not overly surprised when her baby was born with so much hair. After discovering another hairy baby while pregnant on TikTok, she understood it was feasible. There’s a show called Sweet Tooth where mutant babies are born that are half animals, she added. I turned to face my companion and laughed, saying, “We could pass for one of them.
Britney shares videos of her daily routine on TikTok, where she has 11,000 followers. The mother also joked that her daughter was a ‘small parasite’, calling her ‘every name under the sun’. ‘If you’re going to put your life on social media like I am, people will say negative things. ‘These cute names come from a loving place, there’s nothing negative in them.’
