Unfortunately, you both cannot share the credit. It looks like your ex filed first. It is usually granted to the parent who claims the child as a dependent on their return.
Some divorce settlements have a clause where parents can claim their children as dependents in alternating years. For an example, this year you can claim your child as a dependent and receive all of the credits that you are entitled to. Then next year your ex can do the same. You may ask your ex if she would be interested in such an arrangement to avoid future conflicts.
