Birth Credit

Hello!

Is there a special or specific credit women get for giving birth?

So if my girlfriend had a child in 2020. When filing those 2020 taxes is there something extra they get beyond the $2,000 credit that everyone else gets every year?

The child could/may qualify the parent for Head of Household filing status, the EIC, CTC, ACTC and child care credits. Also the first 2 stimulus payments are available for the child if the parent's income is not too high.
