Experimental Treatment
Group I: OutpatientExperimental Treatment5 Interventions
Subjects randomized to this group will receive the same intervention as the inpatient group -- cervical ripening with Foley catheter -- but will be discharged home. Subjects will be asked to return to the hospital when the catheter falls out or if 24 hours has elapsed. They will be given detailed instructions and provided a 24 hour phone number to call should they have any concerns. Subjects will be asked to complete a survey assessing their fears, opinions, anxiety, satisfaction and hours of sleep before and after the catheter is placed and removed, respectively.
The intervention: randomization to outpatient cervical ripening
Group II: InpatientExperimental Treatment5 Interventions
Subjects randomized to this group will receive the same intervention as the outpatient group -- cervical ripening with Foley catheter -- but remain within the hospital. Subjects will be asked to complete a survey assessing their fears, opinions, anxiety, satisfaction and hours of sleep before and after the catheter is placed and removed, respectively.
The intervention: randomization to inpatient cervical ripening
