What Causes Pulsating Sensation In Lower Stomach During Pregnancy?

I just found out last week that I was pregnant, my physician has also confirmed. I have not seen an OBGYN yet but I wanted to ask this: I sometimes feel a pulsating sensation in my lower stomach- it has only happened while I have been asleep and woken up to it. Is that normal?
