Should I be worried if my baby still does not do pincer grip on her own at 13 months?

My baby can eat on her own. If I feed her food by fingers using pincer grip, she follows. However, it just doesn't come naturally to her.

Try to cut the food in smaller pieces. My baby tends to have that habit when she sees a lot of food, she will have the temptation to grab all in her palms and squeeze into her mouth 😅. You can also let her play with beans and smaller pieces toys to train her pincer grip. My LO trains herself by picking up dust and hairs from the floor 🤦🏻‍♀️.
