When you filed your 2020 return, did you include the Recovery Rebate Credit?  The credit is calculated on the number of dependents you had in 2020.  If you had a dependent on your 2019 return that is no longer on your 2020 return or that turned 17, you may have previously received the stimulus for a child that was no longer eligible based on your 2020 return.  The stimulus for the new baby could be offset by that.

 

How many dependents did you receive a stimulus payment for perviously?  How many dependent under age 17 were on your 2020 return?
