I'm looking at a penalty at the moment, though I don't know how considering I never have been in that situation before and if anything, having a kid should have reduced my tax liability further. My plan is to make 2019 IRA contributions now to lower my liability and get out of penalty territory.
The only thing I can think that would explain my increased tax liability is perhaps the Trump tax plan increasing taxes on upper-middle incomes.
