cardi b has opened up about a “freak accident” that almost led to a miscarriage. The musician is pregnant with her and estranged husband Offset’s third child. Earlier this week, she told her followers about her ordeal via Ex Space.
“I had a very strange accident,” she said. “I have to explain it that way because I don’t know how something happened – well, it wasn’t a small thing, I actually heard it.”
Cardi, 31, said what happened “doesn’t really happen that often,” so she was surprised when it “turned into something that was so big.” Cardi said she was “literally paralyzed” for a while. “And that little thing almost made me lose my little baby, but it didn’t,” Cardi said.
“Yesterday I woke up feeling better because I got home, but I got home drunk. Today I didn’t wake up drunk, honey. I’m dying. Like, I’m dying. I swear to God. If I don’t feel better in four hours, I’m going to go to the hospital, and I don’t care,” she continued.
Cardi confessed that she isn’t afraid to “exaggerate” her pain to “get more morphine.” “Give me morphine. I don’t care!” she said. “That’s probably why bitches are getting addicted to drugs and shit.”
Cardi said that while she was being given morphine intravenously, she “started taking it every four hours.”
Accident
Cardi described the “freak accident,” saying, “I was going down the stairs and I slipped a little bit. I almost fell, but I was trying to keep myself from falling, so I held on to the railing. My foot still slipped, and I got hurt pretty bad.”
Cardi said that after the fall, “I felt a weird shock, like something popped, and I literally couldn’t get up.”
Cardi explained that when she screamed for her father, he came running and “tried to help me get up and get down the stairs.” However, despite his efforts, she “couldn’t really walk, like I could feel pain in my lower abdomen.”
Cardi finally decided to take a nap after her fall. “When I woke up, I couldn’t move my butt at all. Like, just moving my legs was causing pain in my lower abdomen. I couldn’t move. I was paralyzed,” she said.
Unable to move, the singer had to be rushed to the hospital by ambulance, where she “found out I had torn a ligament in my pelvic area and it’s right where my baby’s head is.”
“My uterus dilated and I felt contractions every two minutes for the whole 24 hours,” she said. “So they had to monitor me and I was in a lot of pain. I couldn’t move for two days straight.”
Cardi said that doctors eventually “sent me home” and that they “not only told me to stay on bed rest, but I had to get therapy.”
Cardi announced she was pregnant with their third child just one day after filing for divorce from Offset. They were married for six years and share two sons, WayV Set, 2½, and daughter Kulture Kiari, 6.
