Shortly after announcing her pregnancy on Instagram, Cardi B took to X Spaces on August 7, 2024, to inform her fans about being in a freak accident. The rapper didn't get into the specifics and indicated she was in the hospital for two to three days owing to an accident that hurt her and that it doesn't happen often.
Cardi said that at a point the accident's impact became so huge that she was "literally paralyzed". Commenting on how it impacted her current pregnancy, the rapper stated:
“And that little thing almost cost me my little one to come. But it didn’t. Yesterday I was feeling good. I came home, but I came home high as a kite.”
She also mentioned that when she woke up sober she felt like she was dying and that if she didn't feel good in four hours of her X Spaces stream, she would be going to the hospital. Cardi talked about exaggerating her condition so she could get more morphine. Laughing after her statement, the rapper said "Morphine me down."
