We had a baby born this month, February 2019. We cannot add her to the 2018 taxes, correct? We need to wait until next year?

That is absolutely correct. You would report the baby on the 2019 return. Turbo Tax will walk you through how to enter all the information, and if there are child care expenses, how to enter that as well.
