Cardi B revealed that she almost had a miscarriage in a recent “freak accident.”
The rapper, who is expecting her third child with her estranged husband Offset, told her followers about the horrific ordeal earlier this week via X Spaces.
“I had a really weird accident,” she said. “That’s how I explain it, because I don’t know how something – well, it wasn’t anything small, I actually heard it.”
Cardi, 31, said what happened “doesn’t really happen that often,” so she was surprised when it “became something so big.”
She explained that she was “literally paralyzed” for a while.
“And that little thing almost cost me the arrival of my little one, but that didn’t happen,” she noted.
“Yesterday I was fine because I came home, but I came home high. Today I woke up sober, honey. I’m dying. Like, I’m dying. I swear to God. If I’m not fine in four hours, I’m going to the hospital and I don’t give a shit.”
The musician, who is also mother to daughter Kulture, 6, and son Wave, 2, admitted that she was not afraid to “exaggerate” her pain in order to “get more morphine.”
“Morphine me down. I don’t give a shit!” she joked, laughing, before taking a more serious tone and admitting, “That’s probably why bitches get addicted to drugs and stuff.”
Cardi confessed that when she was given intravenous morphine, she began “timing every four damn hours.”
She did not provide further details about her diagnosis or recovery, and her representatives did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
Just hours after we revealed last week that Cardi wanted to end her seven-year marriage to Offset, she announced her pregnancy.
“With every end comes a new beginning!” she wrote, among other things, alongside two Instagram photos showing her cradling her exposed baby bump.
The Grammy winner has confirmed that the 32-year-old Migos member is the father, but stressed that she does not want child support from him.
