First off, I am sorry you don't have a name yet. Second, please feel free to change positions and enjoy the space while you have it. There really is no need to be head down and in position for delivery from week 16 onward. Let your little head explore places other than my bladder.

Dear Sophie: I adore you, baby girl...i really do and it's so much fun to watch/feel you move around...but that position that you like, with either your head or your feet pressed against my ribs so that Mommy can't sit down comfortably? Yeah, it's not so pleasant after the 2nd hour or so.
I'm sure my bladder is quite a fun ball to kick around or pillow to sit on, but please lay off of it. I feel like I have to pee every 30 minutes and when I get there not much comes out and I still feel like I have to go. Also, please grow strong and kick so Daddy can see/feel you too. While I have your attention, you may want to change positions because I know you don't like it when I sit in my work chair since I can feel you squirming all day. Work just started for the next few weeks, so find a different position and get comfy.
I like cheerios and chocolate as much as the next girl, but this whole craving it morning, noon and night thing isn't healthy. Try going back to the salad and baked potatoe cravings ok dude? Those were much better for us and then the doctor won't fuss at mommy at the next appointment.
I promise I won't let your dad name you after a robot, a liquor or a football player. Also, if you'd stop kicking my cervix I promise not to dress you in anything too embarassing... No matter how cute it may be.
Love, Tu Madre.
PS- Please don't decide to come the day of the UK/ Louisville basketball game. Mommy can't handle that much excitement in one day.
Why do you like to punch my belly button area so? I'd really appreciate it if you moved just to either side of it, it is quite tender. I do love how I can feel you move all the time, just make sure that daddy gets his fair share of strong kicks too! By the way, we are going to our 3D ultrasound next weekend, if you could we would really like to see you so please put on a show! :-)
Love,
Mommy

You are mommy's little angel. But, please let me get some sleep at night. I am trying everything to stay asleep without waking up with hip and back pain but it is becoming very impossible. Also, my feet can't handle the swelling anymore!!! Remember though, that mommy knows all of this is worth it because at the end of this long road I get to meet you (with God's help of course). Keep up the kicking and rolling, it keeps me very occupied!
First, I love you and can't wait to meet you! Perhaps we should discuss this in private, but mommy would really, really love if you could stop causing her to have hemorrhoids. They are very painful. Thanks and love,

I love all of your letters and whole heartedly agree!
Dear Brynn,
Thank you for kicking all of the time and letting other people finally feel you. If you could though, please practice your sucking reflex. Mommy had another bad dream that you weren't going to breastfeed and that's my one fear. And you really hit a growth spurt last month, but if you could slow that down just a tad that would be great. Too much more and the doctors will make you come out early and we don't want that. Can't wait to see you. We're all counting down!
Please stop kicking me only when im upset with Daddy. LOL. You dont always have to be on his side. Also, when Daddy talks to you dont get all quiet. He would love to feel you kick. He was so upset yesterday that you stopped as soon as he went to feel.
P.S We will be moving in our new home soon. Daddy promises to set your crib up asap.
I can't wait to see your little face! In a few weeks your daddy will be ready to paint your room and put together your furniture. It would be a really fun reward for all his hard work if you could give him a nice kick or two when he puts his hands on my belly and talks to you. If you could think about working up a few predictable kicks for his amusement, I promise not to complain [within your earshot] if you take after me and aren't a great sleeper.
Mommy and daddy are so excited to meet you! Would you let mommy have one or two nights of sleep before you arrive so that she can have some energy to take care of you? Please stay in mommy for at least 10 more weeks and then feel free to make your appearance!

Dear Elsa Marie,
Stop being such a literal pain in the butt - it's making it hard for mommy to walk up and down the stairs at work and home!
