I stood and swirled my lower waist in a circle motion (like if u had a hoola hoop) I found that helped so much the pain was almost non existent

Try a bath. The warmth can help you relax and feel better and speed labor as you aren't fighting your contractions. Walk around the house, clean, keep moving until they are too close together.
