You did not mention the ages of the other children. If they were older than 17 then you do not get the child tax credit for them. You get the $500 credit for other dependents for them instead. Or .....if they are younger than 18, and you did not get the CTC then you answered something incorrectly in My Info when you entered them as dependents. Did you enter their Social Security numbers?
Wish you would have asked your questions and waited for replies before e-filing. If you already e-filed then you have to wait and see if the return is accepted or rejected. If it is rejected you can fix mistakes and re-file. If it is accepted then you have to wait until it has been fully processed by the IRS, and then you can amend. It is taking the IRS about six months or more to process amended returns, so you may have a very long wait to get the CTC for the other children.
