Our 10 month old daughter has not developed the pincer grasp yet and it worries me a little. She can pick up anything, doesn't have any sort of delays in any other areas, but cannot, for instance, get a cheerio from her hand to mouth. Everything ELSE goes to the mouth, like eating a piece of toast, crackers, etc. She CAN pick it up, but she just just uses all fingers and palms it ... she can get it up to her mouth and release it, but drops it. Almost every baby book (gotta HATE those) say that she should have been able to do this (like around 8-9 months), but she just hasn't mastered it. I'm not TRYING to worry or hurry her, but need a little reassurance!!! Thanks!
