Get your taxes done using TurboTax
No, do not amend your return for that reason.
The IRS will use the information they have for your girlfriend from her SSA-1099 information and send her a check.
This is still all very new, but if for some reason your girlfriend does not receive a check for the children, she should file even if she doesn't need to.
The stimulus checks are credits for 2020, so in the worst case, she could file her 2020 tax return, (which she could do next year) and get the credits then, but most likely she will get the checks this year.
