She had an emergency C-section after being rushed to hospital, amid warnings mother and baby had just a 50/50 chance of survival.
Son Kobe was born three months early last month, weighing 2lbs, with a bleed on the brain.
He is in neonatal intensive care at Faro but is making progress.
Tequilla, from Barry, South Wales, said it has been a “traumatic experience”.
She added: “It’s a very isolating feeling being over in Portugal.”
The couple, who both work at a battery company, are hoping to raise funds so Kobe can get specialist care in the UK.
David’s sister Claire Savoury, who set up a GoFundMe page for them, said: “It must be hell.
“Even people that we don’t know have sent us anonymous donations, and other people have donated when they haven’t got much themselves.
“It makes you feel really emotional and tugs at your heart strings.
“People are donating as little as they can but it makes a huge difference to the whole.”
