Contractions

I had the easiest labor ever with my daughter. I didn't feel them until they were a minute apart, and only got half the dose of IV pain meds closer to pushing. I have been having contractions that actually hurt now but they aren't anywhere near close together probably 15-20 minutes apart. Is there anything I can do to get some relief? I can't take a bath because my daughter will want in lol.

We are actually trying to get my sister up now so we can leave. I hope this is it this time. My contractions are only every 3-7 minutes though, but it feels like I need to poop so hopefully!

I would bounce on a ball. Walk up and down stairs, carefully. I cant think of anything else that helps.
