They first got to hold baby George five days after his birth.

“It was so amazing. It helped us realise for the first time that we actually have a baby, it gave us such a boost,” said Mr Daniels.

“We were told to keep reading to him, so I quickly tried to download Kindle on my phone.

“The only thing I could get was Harry Potter, so I was sat there reading Harry Potter to a five-day-old baby.”

As George was born prematurely, the couple have been told that it may be up to eight weeks before they can fly home.

Their insurance does not cover any compensation for accommodation or living costs and their hotel is an hour away from the hospital.

They are planning to move closer to the baby once Ms Lloyd has recovered from her C-section.

A round trip in a taxi to the hospital costs about 200 euros and the couple estimate that paying for travel and accommodation will cost them £6,000.
