No progress

My waters broke last night at 11:30pm. Since then I’ve been having contractions every 10 minutes and it hasn’t progressed at all! I am so frustrated.

Can someone help me understand…?

I’m 26 weeks pregnant, I’ve felt baby moving for a month or so now, and it seems entirely logical to me that how I feel the baby’s movements will change.

C-section hip/groin pain
