HI!
Congratulations!  Yes, it is extremely common to have cramping early on.  Especially is this is your first pregnancy.  We always refer to them as stretching pains.  Cramping is nothing to be concerned about unless it is accompanied by bleeding.  In that case, you should call your doctor immediately.  Plain cramping is usually OK, but again, call your MD if it is severe or persistent.
Good luck!
