Abused Neighbour

DH and i moved home a year ago whilst i was pregnant. We now have a 5 month old beautiful DD.
When we moved my parents came to help with the move etc as i was constantly in and out of hospital stays.
My mum made some snacks and cupcakes etc and distributed to some of the neighbours as an introduction. The property is semi detached on a very quiet small plot. My neighbour in the joint property popped over with a shop bought cake as she wanted to give something back. We are the youngest couple on the plot. The others has lived in their houses longer than i’ve lived. All are lovely.

Anyway my joint neighbour recently i have seen out in yhe garden quite alot and is always chatty and popped over to see DD and brought her an outfit. Her husband only says hello and gets on with whatever he is doing. Since her visit over to mine i have been woken by loud shouting and swearing in the middle of the night and doors slamming. It is getting quite regular over the past few months..as i am a light sleeper and get woken up easily.

My concern is the neighbour as i can only ever hear the husband and not her. And i have seen her in morning after the shouting and swearing and she does seem ok. Should i approach her? She does seem quite timid. Help please

Open with something like I woke last night with some noise. Were you woken too?
Make sure you have a note of the Domestic Abuse helpline appropriate to your area
Let her know that you are always there to listen and help any way you can.

Couples have arguments. I wouldnt say anything she will probably be mortified you heard.
