Cardi B reveals accident, torn ligaments after pregnancy announcement

Cardi B is recovering after accident.

The rapper, who revealed last week that she was pregnant together with her and ex-husband Offset’s third child, spoke on X Spaces a few recent medical issue that nearly resulted in a miscarriage. Cardi said on Thursday that she felt “paralyzed” and “couldn’t move for two days straight” after a “freak accident.”

“I was coming down the stairs and I kind of slipped a little bit,” the Grammy winner explained, People“I almost fell, but I was trying not to fall, so I held on to the railing. My foot kept slipping and I kind of busted my butt.”

She added that when she fell, she “felt a weird jolt, like a pop, and I couldn’t really get up.” Cardi then “yelled” to her dad, who ran over and “tried to help me up.” The “I Like It” rapper tried to maneuver but “noticed that I couldn’t really walk, like I felt pain in, I don’t know, my lower stomach.”

Cardi decided to take a nap after the autumn, explaining that she had gotten used to feeling a “little bit of pain” in her pelvic area because she was carrying her third child “a little low.” However, when she woke up, she said she “couldn’t move my butt at all.”

“Just moving my feet hurt my lower abdomen,” Cardi added. “I couldn’t move. I felt paralyzed.”

She was so concerned that she called an ambulance to take her to a close-by hospital. There, she says, she learned that she had torn a ligament in her pelvis and that “it was right where my baby’s head was.”

“I dilated and had contractions every two minutes for 24 hours,” Cardi 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 doctors eventually sent her home and told her she needed to remain in bed and attend therapy.

“So stop playing with me. I’m not the type of person to blow anything out of proportion,” she told critics who had earlier condemned her for asking the hospital for more morphine. “You don’t even know what the hell is going on or what I’m going through.”
