The I Like It rapper shared clips of herself sweating it out in the gym about a week after posting hospital pictures with her newborn baby in her arms.
“It’s barely been a week. Yoh, the pressure women in the industry are under? Insane,” a social media user named Bassie wrote on X after watching a clip of the hip-hop star on a treadmill.
The WAP rapper clapped back by resharing Bassie’s tweet and saying the internet will always have “something to say” about her body and her weight.

“This is my third baby and postpartum is a little different from my first two… I’m not doing heaving 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… but you know what’s funny??” she said.
“Y’all dragged me down when I gained 15 pounds because I was 5 months pregnant but now yall fake concerned and wanna talk about pressure???” she continued. “Y’all said I was pregnant to avoid working now that you see I’m still at it it’s something else?? So yeah I’m taking this personal but its FOR ME because either way y’all are gonna have something to say.”

Bassie later said she didn’t mean any harm and called herself a “big fan” of the artist.
“I genuinely didn’t mean any harm and the tweet was never an indictment on you but rather society’s expectations of women and ‘snap back’ culture,” said the rueful fan. “The reply to the OP honestly shows that there was no malicious intent. But I hope you and baby are well. I’m a big fan.”

Cardi B didn’t mind continuing the conversation as she replied to the fan and said she agreed with the sentiment about “society and pressure.”
“Totally babe!! And I do agree about society and pressure…I just was never the type to care about snap back after birth,” the rapper replied.
After the third birth, “I have this burst of energy where I want to do EVERYTHING… It’s like I want to complete all my goals in one day,” she said

She also said that she felt like she had a “burst of energy” following her third child’s birth, almost like she wanted to complete all her goals “in one day.”
“I don’t know what it is about this time around but I have this burst of energy where I want to do EVERYTHING… It’s like I want to complete all my goals in one day,” she added.
