An X user named Monicah has posted a message she says came from a new mother after Monicah offered to buy a baby carrier for her newborn. Monicah said she had meant to give a carrier she could afford out of love. She wrote that the mother instead sent the exact carrier she should buy, saying it was "more comfortable" for the baby. When Monicah checked the price, she found it was far above her budget. She asked why a gift she had offered within her means suddenly seemed "like an order." The shared message opens with "Ore" and tells Monicah that if she wants to get the carrier, she should help them obtain an infatinor carrier. The mother calls it very comfortable and nice, and says that although they are different kinds, she understands that one is especially comfortable for babies.
