Brief Answer:
Normal, nothing to worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Cramping in the lower abdomen is common in the first trimester due to the mild contractions of the uterus.
This is completely normal, because intrauterine pregnancy induces mild uterine contractions.
So, there is absolutely nothing if there is no bleeding.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
