@pandorasciencemama: Any other pregnant mamas feel like this orangutan?? 🦧 In 2023, a pregnant orangutan called Eirina was worrying her keepers at Denver Zoo. She was refusing to eat or drink and barely came out of her nest. That was until one of her keepers remembered a special tea that she had drunk during her own pregnancy to help with morning sickness. As soon as Eirina tried the tea, she became much more like herself and even agreed to eat something. And from then on, she waited every morning for her special tea to arrive 🥹 Any other pregnant mamas massively relate to this??

This reminds me of that mama orangutan who didn’t know how to nurse her baby because she’d lost her mother very young, so a zookeeper came in with her own newborn and demonstrated. The orangutan got it almost instantly.

My mom told the story of calling a vet because our (female indoor-outdoor) cat was nauseated for several days. The receptionist laughed out loud before asking the vet. Came back very sober because the doc informed her that cats 100% can get morning sickness.

Um, wait a minute, are you going to pass over the fact that she had morning sickness😳 they just found out that the health of the male gives the woman morning, sickness really bad. I wonder if it's the same for them😳 if I can't get over her having morning sickness, what do they actually throw up? 😳 iI didn't know what the hell you said after that. I'm stuck on that like what the heck... 🎶going to search bar, gonna go to google🤣🤣🎶

Nah i couldn’t stand the smell of anything or keep anything down for about 6/7 months. Having a smoothie taste like sambuca would have killed me off. Imagine throwing up and having flashbacks of your 20s.

raspberry leaf is meant to be avoided until late pregnancy as it can bring on labour!
