What causes numbness in fingers while sleeping

Hi, during the last night when I couldn't sleep. I felt my finger going numb and couldn't move it at all for a few seconds. Then it went back to normal. This Happens even on a small part of my feet sometimes. Can the cause of the problem be a lack of sleep? I am not able to fall asleep for a few months.
