Wed Sep 18 00:22:42 UTC 2024: ## Cardi B Welcomes Third Child, Faces Backlash for Postpartum Fitness Routine
Rapper Cardi B has announced the birth of her third child, a baby girl, on September 7th. The news comes weeks after her separation from husband Offset. While celebrating the arrival of her daughter, Cardi B is also facing criticism for her postpartum fitness routine.
Just eight days after giving birth, the “WAP” artist has returned to her exercise routine, focusing on cardio and avoiding strenuous activities. She explained on X (formerly Twitter) that she’s found staying active and busy helps her avoid postpartum depression.
However, this approach has drawn criticism from some fans, who expressed concern about the pressure she’s facing. Cardi B responded to the backlash, pointing out the double standards she faces. She was previously criticized for gaining weight during her pregnancy, and now she’s being criticized for working out so soon after giving birth.
Cardi B reiterated that her decision to return to fitness is personal and for her own well-being. She emphasized that she’s always been a strong woman and doesn’t feel pressured to “snap back” after pregnancy.
Cardi B and Offset, who are currently estranged, are also parents to son Wave, 3, and daughter Kulture, 6. Despite their separation, they seem to be co-parenting their children, as evidenced by the heartwarming photos shared on Instagram.
Cardi B’s postpartum journey highlights the complex pressures women face, particularly in the public eye. She is embracing her own path to recovery and motherhood, while also addressing the criticism and double standards she encounters.
