Since your return has been accepted, you'll need to amend your return.

To avoid unnecessary delays, do not amend until your original return has been fully processed. You will need to print and mail the amendment.
Allow 8-12 weeks for processing.

See this TurboTax FAQ for help with amending.

You can check the status of your amended return here, but allow 3 weeks after filing for it to show up.

The mom will need to paper file her return by mail because her return will automatically be rejected saying her dependent has already been claimed. This article will give you instruction on how to print and mail your return.
