Recovery Rebate Credit

Last year when I filed my taxes I did not have a dependent.  Therefore, I only received a stimulus check for $1200 and $600. I had a son born on 8/3/20. I expected to get the additional amounts for my child when filing my 2020 taxes using Turbo Tax. Why was this not automatically added on the Recovery Rebate Credit worksheet?

Be sure to indicate that the child lived with you all of 2020 (which is okay for newborns).
