Bumping to see if i can get additional feedback on this topic.
It sounds like you told Turbotax that you would "file" your return by mail. That marks the return as "filed" or "completed", so it only gives you the option to amend when you re-open it. You need to get back into the program and undo the filing step so it looks like an original never-filed return. Then you can add your dependent and either e-file or file by mail.
If you are using turbotax online, I think you will need to call customer support. There may be another trick to reopen a filed return, but I haven't kept up with the details of how the program function. Someone else may know if there is a trick.
