While most babies will start developing the pincer grasp near nine months of age, some babies may also reach the milestone after their first birthday. There is no need to worry if your baby is reaching other milestones, at a comfortable pace.
Once your baby starts using the pincer grasp, he will also be in a position to feed himself better. Now your baby will be able to hold a small cereal and place it in his mouth. You can give your baby healthy finger foods like carrots and cereals, now that he can grasp solids food and eat them.
