When she gave birth, did you count the placentas? It's possible one didn't come out, and that you are seeing it now (Picture isn't very clear, this is what can make of it). if this is the case, it has to come out. Otherwise it can cause major problems for the mom. If it doesn't come out of itself (I'm not sure how long ago the brith was) you'll need a vet to help her.

I should know, but sorry, I don not know.  Phone your vet?   It looks like a little sack, too small for a missshaped kitten or a placenta.

It does look like some sort of excess tissue coming out.

If there is no blood going on or changes in her, I would chalk it up to just tissue that has shed since the birth.

I don't think it's anything serious.

As @stefanz said, too small for a baby, who knows, maybe there was supposed to be one more originally but it didn't all come together quite right when it was first taking shape (very early on) and her body reabsorbed it but the tissue is needing to be expelled.
