Cardi B's kids are growing up fast!

The pregnant rapper, 31, posted new videos of her kids on her Instagram Stories on Friday, Aug. 9, showing off their unique style.

In the first clip, daughter Kulture Kiari, 6, smiled and laughed while wearing a Hello Kitty-themed shirt and matching black shorts. The video's audio was muted and it was set to Latto's song "Big Mama."

Cardi praised her son Wave Set and his fresh cornrows in the second video. "You look like mommy," the performer told the 2½-year-old, who agreed. "And I like your hair."

A day after filing for divorce from the "Need It" rapper, 32, Cardi announced on Instagram that she is pregnant.

"With every ending comes a new beginning!" she captioned a carousel of photos on Aug. 1 in which she posed in a red evening gown that exposed her belly while she cradled her baby bump.

"I am so grateful to have shared this season with you, you have brought me more love, more life and most of all renewed my power!" Cardi wrote.

The caption, written to her future child, continued: "You’ve reminded me that I never have to choose between life, love, and my passion! I love you so much and can not wait for you to witness what you helped me accomplish, what you pushed me to do!"

"It’s so much easier taking life’s twists, turns and test laying down, but you, your brother and your sister have shown me why it’s worth it to push through!" Cardi's announcement concluded.

The video clips of her kids came after a difficult week for Cardi, who shared in an X Spaces chat after announcing her pregnancy that a "freak accident" almost resulted in a pregnancy loss.

After the accident, she was hospitalized for three days and given morphine.

"When I woke up, I couldn't move my bottom at all. Like, just moving my feet was hurting the bottom of my stomach. I couldn't move. I felt like paralyzed," she recalled in a follow-up conversation in which she shared more details.

The tear was in her pelvis, near her baby's head, she said.

"I dilated and I was having contractions for every two minutes for a whole 24 hours," the soon-to-be mom of three recalled. "So they had to monitor me and I was in a lot of pain. I couldn't move for two days straight."
