TurboTax skipped my Form 8606 Cost Basis Line 2 - is this a bug? Can I file?

I finally have all my info inputted into TurboTax Online and am ready to file.

 

However, there seems to be a bug in the software - It captured my husband's total cost basis for Line 2 on form 8606 (married filing jointly), but the software did not compute MY cost basis even though I'm carrying over a basis from 2023 and made an additional contribution for 2024.

 

The calculation of my cost basis has no effect on my tax owed but I want the form to be correct. What should I do? Should I file electronically, then mail an amended form 8606 with the correct total cost basis?

 

Thank you
