Probably during the mummification process, which involves removing a number of organs.

I’m guessing the mummification process. They ripped out all the viscera that could decompose and probably pushed the fetus up there.

“...had become lodged in the girl’s chest.”

Maybe a triplet? I read somewhere that back in the day (before modern medicine), triplets were often a death sentence for the mother. The third baby would normally be so far up in the abdomen that it couldn’t be safely delivered.

I offer this knowing nothing more about the mommy mummy in question.
