She will have to apply for a tourist visa at the US consulate in Spain. Although she is not a citizen of Spain the fact she is a resident there should help. She will have to show evidence of having a life in Spain, such as a job etc and enough to fund her own expenses for the trip. It is no different than if she were in her home country.

Congrats for the baby!!!!

The consulate used to look at "letters of invitation" from someone in the U.S. that said that the person would provide room and board for the visitor while they were here. The consulates don't really expect that anymore, and they'll probably look more at your mom and her financial situation to make sure she can support herself while she's visiting and will definitely return home.
