I am having leg and foot cramping when I wake up in the morning and try to stretch my legs. Is this normal?

I had a tummy tuck with lipo 3 weeks ago (11/4/15) and I started walking 2 days after the surgery. The cramping is very painful and I had to massage my legs until the pain goes away. Is this normal?
