Just weeks before, the proud mum shared cute pictures of Bowie as they played in a park close to her home.
Dani also shared a video of Tom - who was part of the band Stereo Kicks - singing an acoustic version of Cold Heart by Dua Lipa and Elton John to the baby.
She wrote: "Happy 6 months my darling boy.
"I played this song almost every day of my 3rd trimester, it was in my labour playlist & it was number 1 the day Bowie was born… determined for it to be “our song” & for it always remind us of life's good bits."
Tom broke the devastating news Dani had passed away in a heartbreaking Instagram post yesterday.
He paid tribute to the "brightest light in any room" and said he would miss her "forever".
The singer said: "I can’t believe I am writing these words but my darling Dani - my best friend, my everything and more, the love of my life - passed away in the early hours of Saturday morning, 18th June.
“On what was supposed to be the happiest day of our lives ended in irreversible heartbreak.
'CRIED AN OCEAN'
"I feel like I have cried an ocean. We never made it to the alter; or got to say our vows, or dance our first dance, but I know you know that you were my entire world and the best thing that has ever happened to me, Danielle.
"I will wear this ring that I was always supposed to wear as a sign of my unconditional love to you.”
Tom told how he planned to raise Bowie alone in Dani's memory.
He added: "I am completely broken trying to process this and I honestly don’t know where to go from here, but I do know I need to use any strength I can muster for our little boy.
"I will not be a mark on the parent that you had already become but I promise I will do my everything to raise Bowie just the way we always wanted. I promise you he will know how amazing his mummy was. I promise to make you so so proud.
“The most beautiful person inside and out. The most incredible soul. We have lost such a special person and I am sure we are about to see an abundant outpouring of love that reflects that. I will try to find peace in your messages and comments, but right now I am grieving and I will be for a very, very long time.”
His tribute was echoed by celeb pals who have expressed their sympathies.
Girls Aloud vocalist Nadine Coyle commented: “Sending so much love, light & healing to you, Bowie & everyone who loved Dani!!".
Pop star Mimi Webb added: “Tom I’m so so sorry. Sending all my love to you & thinking of you. Love you brother x we are with you.”
While Scottish singer Lewis Capaldi wrote: “Love you brother.”
