Pregnant Cardi B gets candid about childbirth, confesses second baby was ‘too big’ and ‘ripped’ her
Cardi B candidly revealed she “ripped” her WAP while giving birth to her second baby, Wave, because he was “too big.”
“My second baby, he too big — he broke me,” Cardi, whose real name is Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar, said during her appearance on Friday’s episode of “The Breakfast Club.”
“The first one, I had to stitch,” she continued, before clarifying that she was referring to her vagina. “Oh yeah, I ripped.”

“My second baby, he too big — he broke me,” she said on Friday.ASPN / BACKGRIDAccording to the Mayo Clinic, “Minor tears are most common,” but “vaginal tears may occur if the baby’s head is too big for the vagina to stretch around. Or sometimes a tear might happen if the vagina doesn’t stretch easily.”
When asked by the co-host, JessHilarious, how she managed to use the bathroom afterward, the “Bodak Yellow” hitmaker described the experience as “hard.”
“But that’s what I’m saying — now things are just a little different and I’m more experienced,” she continued.
“Like, the third one was so easy, so I’m expecting this one to be as easy as well, in the name of the Lord. That’s why I’m like, ‘I just did it last year. I can do it [again],’” she said, referencing her third child, Blossom, whom she shares with her estranged husband, Offset.
