The choices above are applicable to any case, especially when \"the little baby\" is the son of the letter\'s author.

But if it is a love affair and it is a woman addressing a man she loves, you may also use:

ласковый, нежный малыш

laskovyj / nezhnyj malysh.

The last two choices may imply some sexual context. The former three suit any situation, they are stilistically neutral.
