*Cardi B has revealed that she “kinda, sorta” thought about getting an abortion when she found out she was pregnant with fiancé Offset’s baby.

It’s worth noting the rumors going around that Cardi kept her pregnancy secret for so long because Offset tried to convince her to end the pregnancy, as he considers the timing to be bad for her career and his. 

On Power 105.1’s “The Breakfast Club” on TuesdayCharlamagne tha God asked the Bronx rapper whether she ever thought about “not having the baby,” since she conceived at the height of her fame and just before the release of her debut album.

“Kinda, sorta,” she said. “I just didn’t want to deal with the whole abortion thing. I just didn’t want to … I’m a grown woman, I’m 25 years old, I’m gonna say this in the most humblest way: I’m a schmillionaire,” Cardi said. “I’m prepared for this.”

She added that her pregnancy wasn’t planned and that finally confirming the pregnancy rumors this weekend was a “relief.”

Cardi admits she’s concerned about balancing her work and home life, but she’s most peeved that folks are convinced that she can’t do both.

“It just really bothers me and it disgusts me,” she said, “because I see a lot of women online like, ‘Oh, I feel sorry for you, your career is over,’ and it’s like, ‘Why can’t I have both? Why do I have to choose a career or a baby?’”

She also said, “I don’t want to wait until I’m 30-something to have a kid. I want my kid now that I have energy and stuff.”

As far as her post-baby plans, Cardi said, “I have been working and thinking about album and thinking about what I gotta do next. I gotta take my time to nest and think … I’m hoping to [take] a month, three weeks [off].”

Cardi didn’t even tell her own friends that she’s expecting before the news got out.

“I have to prove [to] people that a baby won’t stop me … I just wish that I had a little bit more time for me to think for me. I didn’t like that people [were] harassing me,” she said. “I had a whole bunch of friends calling me like, ‘Why did I have to find out [about your pregnancy] on the internet?’ … It’s something so precious and private to me, and I didn’t even get to keep that for myself.”
