Please notice, when she does sleep, is it restless? does she snore? Have you asked her if she's afraid of something? How does she look? any dark circles? How does she feel when she wakes? Is her mouth open when she's sleeping? ever complain of leg pain? does she have allergies? I know these questions sound sort of out of place, but I can assure you, they are not. If the answer is no to all of my questions then start watching, and asking her. Very little problems can add up to a big problem with sleep. insomnia is a symptom of somehting in my book, find out what's causing it.
