The investigators are performing a randomized controlled-trial investigating starting cervical ripening in the outpatient setting with a mechanical method, the transcervical Foley catheter. This is a pilot study to establish the efficacy of this method in decreasing time as in inpatient and evaluate patient satisfaction.
Induction of labor is necessary in one-fourth of women and a large proportion requires cervical ripening. Cervical ripening is necessary to shorten the time to delivery and increases the chances of a vaginal delivery.
Outpatient cervical ripening is an attractive alternative to women and physicians because of the decreased amount of time spent in the hospital and opportunity for patients to be in the comforts of their home.
The investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial comparing outpatient to inpatient cervical ripening using a transcervical Foley catheter. Women will be randomized to undergo inpatient or outpatient transcervical Foley catheter cervical ripening beyond their 39th week of gestation. Women and their infants will be followed until the time of their discharge.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Inpatient cervical Ripening | Active Comparator | Subjects in this arm will be seen in the outpatient setting, and if they qualify and are randomized to the inpatient (control) group, they will be admitted to labor and delivery the next day for cervical ripening with a transcervical Foley catheter. |
|
| Outpatient cervical Ripening | Active Comparator | Subjects in this arm will undergo cervical ripening with a transcervical Foley catheter in the outpatient setting (treatment arm). The transcervical catheter will be placed in the office after confirmation of fetal well-being. They will then return the next morning to be admitted to labor and delivery for oxytocin administration. |

| Outpatient Group (Intervention) |
Subjects in this arm will undergo cervical ripening with a transcervical Foley catheter in the outpatient setting (treatment arm). The transcervical catheter will be placed in the office after confirmation of fetal well-being. They will then return the next morning to be admitted to labor and delivery for oxytocin administration. Outpatient cervical ripening: Subjects will undergo cervical ripening in the outpatient setting. The patients will then be scheduled to return the next morning for induction of labor. |
