Pregnant Bhad Bhabie Says She’s ‘Very Tired’ but ‘Really Excited’ to Meet Her Baby Girl Kali Love (Exclusive)

Bhad Bhabie is counting down the days until she has a baby of her own, but until then, she’s getting some good practice – with a new puppy.

“I’m actually in the middle of feeding her right now,” the 20-year-old reality star-turned-rapper-turned-actress tells PEOPLE over the phone from her Los Angeles home. – I’m getting into the heart of early awakening.

Bhabie (born Danielle Marie Bregoli) says her puppy, a Pomeranian named Blue, even prepared her for the baby spit-up that was about to happen to her.

“Yesterday she threw up over my shoulder,” he says with a laugh. “She was on my back between me and the seat [of my car]. I feel like I would freak out and throw her out of the car if I wasn’t pregnant and I would be so disgusted. For some reason I just had a feeling: get used to it. I took off my jacket, threw it out the car window and came home in a bra.”

Bhad Bhabie is pregnant! The rapper, 20, is expecting her first child with boyfriend Le Vaughn

With Blue, Bhabie — who became famous for her “Cash me out, how about that?” catchphrase during a Dr. Phil appearance in 2016 — says it’s her first time being “super hands-on” with pet care.

“For the first few days since I had her, I just noticed that I had this feeling of waking up early, going to check on her, feed her, do this and that,” she says. – It’s like that maternal instinct.

Bhabie and her boyfriend Le Vaughn first found out they were pregnant on July 11. “I was a day late and I took the test, but I was only a day late because I was just eating so much and I felt like something was off,” she says.

When the test was positive, Le Vaughn was “still asleep and I was too anxious to tell him,” she says. “I probably could have done it in a cute way, but I just woke him up and I said, ‘Look, look, look!’

Bhabie announced her pregnancy to the world in December, when she posted her baby bump on Instagram. Later that month, she revealed the gender of her baby, a girl, in an epic campaign for Marc Jacobs. She and Le Vaughn hit on the name Kali Love.

“The name doesn’t really have a specific meaning, it’s just that his mom picked a middle name and then I had a list of five names that I liked and Kali was one of them,” she says. “I thought love went well with Kali.”

Bhabie thinks she will “definitely be the strict” parent between her and Le Vaughn, whom she met through a mutual friend. She says they like to keep the details of their relationship under wraps because of “how social media tends to be.”

“I even see people saying, ‘Oh, I don’t think she’s ready. I don’t think she’s ready,'” he says. “It’s like, ‘How can you, from your computer screen, determine if I’m ready to be a mother or not?’ I’m not even on [social media], so how can you determine that? You know? It’s just kind of off.”

Bhabie says that her infamous appearance on Dr. Phil show at the age of 13 still follows her.

“People who are nurses and doctors and therapists and lawyers, do you think people would have that job and be held in such high regard if people went back and looked at them when they were 13 and 14 and judged them from that time ?” she asked. “They’re kids, they’re teenagers. But mine just happened to be all over the internet, all over public television. I wish more people knew my story and really understood the things that made me who I am, so that they wouldn’t be like, ‘Don’t just looking at a certain time in my life and expecting to be that person forever, especially when I was so young.”

Bhad Bhabie, 16, announces she’s taking a break from Instagram due to her ‘mental health’

Despite feeling “very tired” and “over-pregnant” at the moment, Bhabie can’t wait for the day when she can “dress up and take out” baby Kali.

“I’m really excited for her,” she says. “I’m definitely going to give her some of my little purses and things like that.”

Aside from Kali’s room needing to be finished, she says everything else is “mostly done.”

In the middle of her pregnancy, Bhabie made her debut in a film directed by Nicholaus Goossen Drugstore Junewhich premiered on February 23. Bhabie and Goossen previously worked together on the music video for her 2018 song “Gucci Flip Flops”.

“I am good friends with [Nicholaus]and he asked if I wanted to play the part, and then we just ended up doing it,” she says.

Although Bhabie would like to pursue acting more, she thinks she is done with music. “I don’t think it’s my party,” she says.

Besides motherhood, Bhabie isn’t sure what else the future holds, but she goes with it.

“I’ve never really been the type of person to sit back and think, ‘Oh, where will I be in five years?'” she says. “Everything would just kind of happen so fast, and it was kind of like a way of life.”

“Really, if I wanted to, I could retire now and be a mom and never leave the house,” she adds. “But I know I still have more in me and I feel like I have more to do. I’m still in the middle of figuring out exactly what that is, but I want to make sure that whatever I do this time is definitely something I’m really interested in and passionate about .”
