Time of headache: Few people wake with a muscle tension headache or get awakened by a muscle tension headache. Avoid light and loud noises, basically all stimulus. If she wakes with headaches i would be thinking more than muscle tension though they also can be very painful.

Could be TMJ/TMD: This could be a case of tmj/tmd. There are several other symptoms associated with TMJ and you should research and consider getting to a dentist or TMJ specialist.
