making contractions stronger?

I'm 4cm dilated 85% effaced and as of last night my contractions are feeling like very bad period cramps and mostly in my back. My doctor told me that I can't go to the hospital until they get strong enough to take my breath away.is there a way to get these contractions stronger and progress labor?
