It's possible that one of two things could account for Leia's statement here:
- She does remember her mother. Her mother was still alive (albeit for a very short time) when she was born so she would have seen how sad she was. Her Jedi powers could have allowed her to recall that.
- Knowledge of her mother was passed on to her genetically (through the power of the force) when she was in the womb. Jedis are able to sense eachother's feelings in the normal course of things anyway, it's possible that the featal Leia could have picked up on her mother's sorrow when she was still in the womb.

But leia's jedi powers are much weaker than luke's, so there's more chance of him remembering than her, and leia's twins were exceptions in that they were force aware within the womb
