After you file

If you want to claim any additional deduction that might result from these amounts then, yes, you'll need to amend your previously-filed 2018 return to claim them.

You can't claim them on next year's return.

Please see the TurboTax FAQ "How to amend (change or correct) a return you already filed," below, for instruction on how to amend your previously-filed tax return.

Please note, however, that Form 1040X, the Amended Return form you need t amend, isn't yet available for filing yet.  It won't be ready until 02/22/2019.
