Just gotta wait it out, it'll go through or get rejected eventually. If you use a client like Electrum, have you tried increasing the fee?

No there isn't, blockchain.info doesn't support this feature like some other wallets do. You'll either have to wait it out or contact a pool/person to accelerate the block. There are some free services out there which may be able to help you out.

It's likely not your fault directly that the fee was low, due to blockchain.info not been very good with calculating the correct fee for the transaction.
