How do I claim the $1,400 stimulus check for a child born in 2021?

I'm going through all of the credits and deductions and I'm showing the $3,600 Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit, but I can't find where to claim the $1,400 3rd Round Stimulus Check for my child born in 2021. 

 

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Enter stimulus in the Search box located in the upper right of the program screen.  Click on Jump to stimulus

The stimulus/recovery rebate credit comes at the end of the program, in the review section, rather than the deductions and credits section.

I appreciate the help! I wasn't fully reading the text on the stimulus page. It stated that I should have been entering the Third Round payment from March 21' through May 21' and I was pulling the whole year from my bank statements. After grabbing only what it asked for, it showed correctly with a $1,400 credit. 

 

Thanks!
