In a candid conversation with her fans on social media, Cardi B shared a harrowing experience that nearly resulted in a miscarriage and left her temporarily paralyzed. The rapper, who is currently expecting her third child, opened up about the ordeal during an X Spaces chat, describing it as a “freak accident” that caused her immense pain and put her unborn child’s life at risk.
The 31-year-old artist, known for her hits like “Like It,” recounted the terrifying experience to her followers, stating, “I had a f***ing freak accident. I don’t know how something like this happened, but it wasn’t something small. It actually hurt.” Cardi went on to explain that the incident was so severe that she was briefly unable to move. “It doesn’t really happen often, but it became something so big that I was literally paralyzed,” she revealed.
Despite the severity of the situation, Cardi expressed relief that the worst did not come to pass. “That little thing almost cost me my little one to come. But it didn’t,” she shared. The rapper also discussed the aftermath of the incident, detailing how she dealt with the pain and the toll it took on her body. “Yesterday, I was feeling good. I came home, but I came home high as a kite. Today, I woke up sober, honey. I’m dying. Like, I’m dying. I swear to God, if I don’t feel good in four hours, I’m going to the hospital and I don’t give a f**k,” Cardi said, injecting a bit of humor into the conversation despite the gravity of the situation.

The rapper, who is currently going through a divorce from her estranged husband Offset, is already a mother to two children: Kulture, 6, and Wave, 2. Offset, a former member of the rap group Migos, also has three other children from previous relationships. Cardi B announced her pregnancy earlier this month with a heartfelt Instagram post, featuring her cradling her baby bump against the backdrop of the New York City skyline.
“With every ending comes a new beginning! I am so grateful to have shared this season with you, you have brought me more love, more life, and most of all renewed my power,” Cardi captioned the post. She continued, “Reminded me that I can have it all! You’ve reminded me that I never have to choose between life, love, and my passion! I love you so much and cannot wait for you to witness what you helped me accomplish, what you pushed me to do!”
Cardi’s pregnancy announcement came amid her divorce proceedings with Offset, whom she married in a private ceremony in 2017. The couple’s tumultuous relationship has seen its fair share of ups and downs, with Cardi previously filing for divorce twice before ultimately calling it off.
As Cardi B navigates this challenging time, she remains focused on her health and her growing family. Despite the recent scare, the rapper’s resilience and determination continue to shine through, proving once again that she is a force to be reckoned with.
