After announcing her third pregnancy, Cardi B is opening up about a near-fatal health scare that almost cost her her recently announced pregnancy.

The Grammy Award winner, 31, revealed in a recent X Spaces chat that she ‘had a f***ing freak accident’ that temporarily left her paralyzed.

‘That’s what I have to explain here,’ she prefaced. ‘Because I don’t know how something — well it wasn’t little, it actually hurt…’

Although she didn’t specify the nature of her illness, Cardi noted that it’s something she’s experienced before.

‘It doesn’t really happen often,’ she said. ‘It became something so big to the point I was literally paralyzed. And that little thing almost cost me my little one to come. But it didn’t.’

Cardi added that she’s since returned home from the hospital, but she’s still in pain.

‘Yesterday, I was feeling good because I came home, but I came home high as a kite,’ she said. ‘Today, I woke up sober. Honey, I’m dying. I’m dying.

‘I swear to God, if I don’t feel good in four hours, I’m going to the hospital,’ added Cardi.

‘And I don’t give a f***, I’m gonna exaggerate this s*** so I can get more morphine. Morphine me down, I don’t give a damn.’

The Invasion Of Privacy artist announced her third pregnancy last week on Instagram with some stunning maternity photos in a red dress.

‘With every ending comes a new beginning!’ she wrote in the post. ‘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!

‘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 can not wait for you to witness what you helped me accomplish, what you pushed me to do!’

Cardi continued, ‘It’s so much easier taking life’s twists, turns and tests laying down, but you, your brother and your sister have shown me why it’s worth it to push through!’

The same day, Cardi filed for divorce from husband Offset amid cheating rumors, seeking primary custody of their six-year-old daughter Kulture and two-year-old son Wave.

In her divorce papers, Cardi confirmed that Offset, 32, is the father of her unborn baby.

A source has since told People that the divorce is ‘not based on cheating rumors, but rather has been a long time coming.’

The insider added, ‘We’ve seen them break up, get back together, break up, get back together, and we just want her to stick to her decision and just enjoy her f***ing life.’
