Is there a way to claim my childrens and childcare costs without providing their ssn?

My 1 year old does not have a social security card yet. I filed for it MONTHS ago but it never came in. Im stationed overseas so it is taking a long time to get it sorted. Now the deadline is a few days away and im stuck. Is there a way to file without it? And still claim my childcare expenses? My eldest I have a ssn for, its just one of my children.
