Actual (reported)Composite of Severe Neonatal Morbidity and Perinatal Mortality
Includes any one of: * Perinatal death * Need for respiratory support within 72 hours after birth * Apgar score of 3 or less at 5 minutes * Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy * Seizure * Infection (confirmed sepsis or pneumonia) * Meconium aspiration system * Birth trauma (bone fracture, neurologic injury or retinal hemorrhage) * Intracranial or subaleal hemorrhage * Hypotension requiring vasopressor support
delivery through 72 hours after birth
Perinatal Death (Component of Primary Outcome)
Perinatal death includes antepartum stillbirth, intrapartum stillbirth and neonatal death
antepartum pregnancy period through hospital discharge
Number of Participant Infants Requiring Respiratory Support (Component of Primary Outcome)
Respiratory support includes mechanical ventilation, continuous positive airway pressure or high flow nasal cannula and cardiorespiratory resuscitation
Delivery through discharge
Number of Infants With Apgar Score ≤3 at 5 Minutes (Component of Primary Outcome)
The Apgar score is based on a total score of 1 to 10. The higher the score, the better the baby is doing after birth. A score of 7, 8, or 9 is normal and is a sign that the newborn is in good health.
Delivery through 5 minutes after birth

Number of Participants With Third or Fourth Degree Perineal Laceration

Expectant management (unless a medical indication arises) until at least 40 weeks 5 days.
Elective induction of labor between 39 weeks 0 days and 39 weeks 4 days
Women randomized to induction of labor will undergo induction via oxytocin at 39 weeks 0 days to 39 weeks 4 days. Those with an unfavorable cervix (modified Bishop score \< 5) will first undergo cervical ripening (method left to the discretion of the patient's physician) in conjunction with or followed by oxytocin stimulation unless a contraindication arises.
