Mother dubs newborn daughter her ‘little monkey’ because she was born with so much body hair

A mum dubbed her newborn daughter her “little monkey” because she was born with so much body hair.

Britney Budhi got a shock when she gave birth to tiny Teyana in Sydney, Australia last September.

The youngster, who was three weeks premature, emerged covered in black hair - the result of her low weight.

Teyana was born on September 16 2021 but was so small that she was classed as premature.
