Hi
Well done on monitoring your child's development. As put know child's development is a sequence and a pattern. Most children follow it but not all. There can be exceptions where child can skip a development only to achieve it later
If her development has been fine all this while, meaning, she grasps things, puts it in her mouth, holds her head, able to blabber words like mama , dada and has no other issues, you can wait for another month.
If there are any concerns plz see your pediatrician
Hope this helps
