Cardi B Gives Birth, Welcomes Baby No. 3 With Estranged Husband Offset
Cardi B wants fans to be careful with the criticism.
A little more than a week after welcoming her third baby with estranged husband Offset, the “WAP” rapper is responding to commentary after she shared a video of herself doing 30 minutes of cardio on a Stair Master.
“Late night gym session,” she wrote in her initial post. “No heavy lifting, no weight just straight stair master until next week.”
She added as a word of caution, “Remember ladies this is my third baby… with my other 2 babies I was still on bedrest on the first week postpartum.”
Now, Cardi, who shares daughter Kulture, 6, and son Wave, 2, with Offset, has explained why she felt the need to kickstart her gym routine again.
“This is my third baby and postpartum is a little different from my first two,” the 31-year-old replied to a person on X (formerly Twitter) who called out the pressure for women to “bounce back” after having a child. “I’m not doing [heavy] lifting, no muscle straining, squatting none of that… just cardio. Sometimes to avoid postpartum depression you gotta keep your mind busy and for me that’s work and staying active.”
