Not progressing

I've been having contractions since 5 this morning and they've been consistent all day. They seemed to have slowed down after I sat down to relax so I got in the shower which Kickstarted them again. Still not getting painful. Hubby and I went and ate dinner and they slowed again so we went walking afterwards and they are back consistently but aren't getting stronger. I haven't went to the hospital or called in because I already know what they are going to say/do. My question is, has anybody had consistent contractions but they didn't  intensify? What can I do to progress them? Theyre uncomfortable but not unbearable. I can walk and talk when they happen.
