2019 Taxes - Pro rata and form 8606?

In mid-2019 I changed jobs and hit above the salary limit for Roth IRA contributions, so in 2019 I re-characterized about $600 from Roth IRA contributions to post-tax IRA, then moved that back via a backdoor Roth contribution, and also moved a few other IRAs to Roth via backdoor, in order to (hopefully) prevent additional taxation. 

I have purchased the turbotax home and business DVD edition, and it is saying that all of this money is now taxable as income, even though it was all post-tax contributions (I was also able to contribute full pre-tax 401k contribution limits last year as well). I was told my my investment companies that only the gains would be taxed and that I would need a Form 8606 to sort out the pro-rate funds. 

Is this in my current edition of TurboTax, if so, It only asks about 2018 so what do I change, to show the correct forms and if not, how do I look for help? None of the turbotax specialist pricing seems to include things of this nature?
