Rcently-lately

Hello,

1. She has not been sleeping well recently(lately).

Is it possible to replace 'recently/lately' by ' for a short time ago' or 'since a short time ago ?

2. She has not been sleeping well for a short time ago.

3. She has not been sleeping well since a short time ago.

Thanks.

She has not been sleeping well for the last week.

She has not been sleeping well since school started in September.
