It seems highly likely that there is nothing wrong with your girlfriend. Pregnancy could make her a little depressed so that she feels sleepy and experiences some abdominal pain. These situations are common in pregnant women. To feel assured, you can take your girlfriend to her obstetrician for an abdominal ultrasound and check up.
