I’ll usually put my hand on her belly or the top of her head, just to let her know that I’m there.

Most internet sites advise against it, but I like the common sense advice on this one---

"Talking" during sleep is one common characteristic dogs share with humans. If you hear your dog crying or making other noises in his sleep, you've likely caught him dreaming about something that happened earlier that day or about things dogs typically do. Don't wake your dog if he's crying or whimpering in his sleep
