He wrote: “I was lucky enough to find someone who shines bright enough to lead me out of the dark, but I never imagined to be lead to the brightest place imaginable.”

The couple, who announced they were expecting in February after a year of IVF treatment, found out the sex of their child when Steph gave birth.

Danny previously admitted he was "nervous" about becoming a dad for the first time.

He said he was not a "solid-stomached" person and worried he wouldn't cope.

He told  of their upcoming birthing plan: "Yeah, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous, I think it's good nerves, though. 

"But sometimes I do get a bit like. 'Oh God, what if I do this wrong?' I'm nervous about that but I think to learn and to grow, you've got to learn on the job."

Danny joked that he can get "quite nauseous" in adrenaline-pumped situations, as he admitted he'd have to "concentrate on Steph" to get through.

"I get quite nauseous in those situations, but I’m hoping the adrenaline takes over and makes me get a hold of myself and realise what I’m there for," he said.

"Hopefully I’ll concentrate on Steph rather than worry about what’s going on around me.' 

He concluded that he will likely cry the moment he hears his newborn let out its first wail, as he will then know they have arrived "healthy and safe".

Steph, meanwhile, said she was busy focusing on the baby instead of herself, and therefore wasn't set in stone on a birthing plan.

"In terms of labour, I'm just not putting any pressure on myself because I know it can be pretty unpredictable," she explained.

"I'm not going to put pressure on myself to have it a certain way. What will be will be, as long as the baby is healthy that's all that matters."
