It’s the Dawsons!

Well, we’re about to depart for West Allis Memorial Hospital and get this baby here!  After a doctor’s appointment Monday, Kari’s OB decided that he didn’t want to wait for her cervix to cooperate (it’s been called all sorts of names recently, but the moral of the story is that is isn’t effaced or dilated at all).  Kari’ll be put onto a Cytotec dosage throughout the evening and night with the hopes that Ms. Cervix cooperates a bit more.

If all goes well, they’ll induce tomorrow morning and at some point our little girl will come into the world pink-faced and screaming.  If the Cytotec dosage doesn’t improve the cervix, the doctor will have to decide if we wait another day to try it again or go in and get her via C-section.  We’re excited, nervous, giddy and bit scared.  All-in-all, the exact emotions you’d think we’re going through right now.

Once Baby Dawson arrives, we’ll be sending out pictures (and yes, revealing the name) via e-mail, Facebook and on this site.  For those of you in Milwaukee, we’ll let everyone know if/when we’re ready for visitors.  We’ll be posting when we can.  Love you all.
