Cardi makes her fashionable appearance just one month after giving birth to her new baby boy on Sept.4, but fans can’t help but notice how snatched her post-baby body looks.

While the Grammy-award-winning artist may appear as though she has snapped back, Cardi shared with fans on social media that she’s still recovering from what she hinted was a tough delivery.

I think it’s because right now I’ve got some amazing hips due to my gorgeous son because he was sitting so low,” the 28-year-old artist shared on her Instagram stories,” according to Essence. “You know when your baby is low your hips spread. But everyone’s just like, ‘Cardi you’re so snatched! You did lipo? You did tummy tuck?’ You cannot do surgery after you give birth,” she continued. “Especially me, I lost so much blood you guys. One day I’m going to talk to you about my crazy a– delivery.”

The rapper then revealed some candid details about how her postpartum body really looks.

“I like to be real with you guys. My skin is still loose, I still got this pouchy-pouch…chile if I show y’all my back fat? And my face is still so fat and my neck, but f–k it,” she added. “Take y’all time. It’s really hard dealing with kids, especially when you do two kids. After you give birth? Chile…”

“I been working out for the past 2 weeks cause bitch I ain’t getting surgery again but let me tell you I haven’t got a headache ever since,” she wrote .
