She then did an impression of him saying he has ‘had it’ and asking everyone to ‘leave me alone,’ and then the baby himself started to fuss a bit.
Nicki, who has not gone public with her son’s name, did reveal a few months ago on her radio show that she mulled over calling him Ninja.
Back when Nicki was still an underground figure she had a musical alter ego called Nicki The Ninja which has also cropped up in some songs since she became a star.
Shortly before New Year’s she revealed on Twitter in response to a fan question that she underwent ‘natural vaginal birth w/epidural. I pushed for 2 1/2 hours.’

Nicki elaborated: ‘Only b/c first the epidural didn’t wear off enough for me to feel myself pushing. Once I was able to feel the pain I pushed him on out.’
The Anaconda rapper, who sometimes calls her baby by the nickname Papa Bear, also wrote: ‘He had no problem breastfeeding.’
She shared that luckily her baby ‘latched on in the hospital which was very surprising to me. I was afraid maybe he wouldn’t.’
Nicki added: ‘But breast feeding is very painful. Pumping is too. Women make this stuff look way too easy. Moms r really superheroes.’
