Innocentia Manchidi shares her pregnancy experience

Taking to her Instagram account on 22 July 2026, Innocentia shared that she had a beautiful story to tell about God, along with a few pictures of her time at the hospital.

“I’m still basking in this blessing right now, but believe me when I say God restores, okay?! He restores and makes you whole again.”

Innocentia stated that the years 2023 and 2026, the years she gave birth to her children, were a testament of God’s goodness and favour, noting that she had two smooth pregnancies and healthy babies.

She then spoke about her time at the hospital, sharing that while she was waiting to be wheeled into theatre, she remained calm and excited to see her baby boy… the opposite of what her husband was feeling!

The actress then thanked her mother, who served as her birthing partner, grateful to have her by her side for both deliveries.

A shout-out to the doctor

“This is the reason I’ll keep falling pregnant, y’all,” laughed Innocentia, “Everybody deserves to experience a Dr Tshikanda delivery, man. Imagine hymns playing in the background while you wait to hear that little cry and then the famous ‘Happy Birthday, how old are you now?’ seconds after the baby is born. Oh, what an incredible experience. I know God will bless you for us, Doc.”

Experience after birth

As she concluded her post, a nostalgic Innocentia shared that she couldn’t fall asleep on the first night, as she was in awe of her creation. She was reminded of her daughter, who was born in the same hospital as her little brother, wearing the same blanket, only in pink.

“He has done great things. Bless His holy name.”
