You can claim him as a dependent on your return. 

A child born in 2022 is considered as having lived with you all year. 

  1. Open or continue your return in TurboTax
  2. Select My Info in the left navigation.
  3. Select the Add a dependent button .

unless the baby had income in 2022 there is no return to file for them and if they did it can be complicated because of the kiddie tax rules.
