As there are no other findings of concern it is reassuring. It could be a mesenteric cyst ( cyst in the peritoneal fold in the abdomen).
A small possibility that it could be ovarian cyst as you have mentioned your baby is a girl.
The cyst is usually not dangerous. Rpt ultrasound after 4 weeks to evaluate for the size of the cyst.
Baby needs ultrasound abdomen after delivery and needs to be examined by neonatoogist
