Labour induction is an obstetrical procedure, which artificially starts the process of cervix dilation, in order to induce labour. Several methods of labour induction exist : mechanical ones (using dilatation balloons) or pharmacological ones (using prostaglandins or oxytocin). This trial aims to compare, in case of non-favourable cervix, the strategy of labour induction using the Propess® method first (Dino-first) versus the strategy beginning with the use of a dilatation balloon (Ballon-first), with respect of the usual practice and the current guidelines.

| Rate of uterine hyperstimulation with an impact on the foetus | Uterine hyperstimulation is described as a number of contractions of 6 or more within 10 minutes, repeating at least twice). Foetal impact is defined as a slowing of the foetal heart rate. | On the day of the delivery |
| Rate of uterine hypertonia | Uterine hypertonia is describes as a frequency of contractions every 2 minutes or less together with a slowing of the foetal heart rate. | On the day of the delivery |

| Pain level linked to the inflation of the dilatation balloon and requiring the partial deflation of the balloon | Measurement of Pain will be made using an Visual Analog Scale (VAS). The pain level will be linked to the inflation of the dilatation balloon and requiring the partial deflation of the balloon | On the day of the delivery |
| Pain level recorded at different times of the labour induction | Measurement will be made using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and will be recorded at different times of the dilatation balloon or the dinoprostone vaginal pad set up | On the day of the delivery |
| Assessment of the patient experience of the labour induction | Patient experience will be assessed using the W-DEQ (Wijma Delivery Expectancy/Experience Questionnaire) | Up to two weeks after the delivery |
| Assessment of each strategy direct main costs | The costs of the treatment and duration of the hospitalization will be measured | through study completion, an average of 3 years |
