Cardi B recently opened up about a terrifying incident that nearly led to a miscarriage during her third pregnancy.
“I was going down the stairs and I slipped a little,” Cardi shared on X Spaces. She explained that while trying to save herself, she grabbed the railing but still lost her footing. “I kind of busted my ass,” she added candidly.
After the slip, she felt a strange jerk. “I felt a weird jerk, like a pop, and I couldn’t get up really,” she said. The pain intensified, and Cardi noticed she couldn’t walk properly. She described feeling pain in her lower stomach.
Cardi tried to nap it off, but it only got worse. “I couldn’t move my bottom at all. Just moving my feet was hurting the bottom of my stomach. I felt like paralyzed,” she revealed. In a panic, she called for an ambulance.
Once at the hospital, the severity of the situation became clear. “I tore a ligament in my pelvis and it’s right where my baby’s head is at,” Cardi explained. To make matters worse, she started having contractions every two minutes for an entire day.
The medical team monitored her closely as she endured excruciating pain. Cardi couldn’t move for two days straight and required morphine for relief. “And that little thing almost cost me my little one to come. But it didn’t,” she said with relief. Despite the ordeal, she announced that she was feeling somewhat better the previous day.
Returning home was a mixed bag. “Yesterday I was feeling good. I came home, but I came home high as a kite,” Cardi admitted. However, the next day brought back the pain. “Today, I woke up sober, honey. I’m dying. If I don’t feel good in four hours, I’m going to the hospital.”
Interestingly, her accident news followed another headline—her filing for divorce from Offset for the second time. While Offset has remained tight-lipped about the pregnancy and the accident, he did post a cryptic message targeting an unspecified “sucka” on social media.
Cardi B’s fans and followers are undoubtedly relieved to hear she’s recovering. It’s been a whirlwind of emotions for the rap star, but it seems she’s on the mend and back on her feet.
