When the film base contains the same moisture content as the emulsion it will uncurl. I wouldn't let it bother me. Dry the negatives, cut and sleeve them. If you store the sleeved negatives in binder of some kind then the binder will hold them flat until they relax naturally. Putting a bowl of water under the negatives just increases the speed of moisture absorption by the base.
