recovery rebate credit for stimulus payment 2

I had a baby in Aug 2020 and did not get the second (Dec) stimulus payment for her because she was not on my 2019 taxes. I was unable to file my recovery rebate credit on turbotax because they did not give me that option through the program when I filed in April. In June I learned that I could amend my return using a 1040X and try to claim the additional $600 that I did not receive for my child previously. I mailed in the paperwork and have still not heard anything back from the IRS to even notify my that it was received. Is there anything I can do to check on that? How will that affect my taxes for 2021 when I am ready to file?
