Passport application update for family members

Hi there, I am not sure if anyone is similar situation. Any advice will be grateful.

I and my family (wife and 2 children) applied for first British passport on 27th Nov 2022 and sent the documents on 29th Nov 2022.

I got my passport yesterday (12th Dec 2022) - HMPO Hemel Hempstead
My wife received update on 30th Nov 2022 saying documents received (HMPO Corby) - no approval yet
My two children didn't receive any update at all (not even documents received) The documents sent to Hempsted and Corby HMPO

I am worrying if passport office lost my children documents? Does this take this long to update "documents received" update?

Yes it does take time to update their system. If you did recorded delivery, then that's all the acknowledgement you need to ascertain that it got to it's destination.
Passport would get approval at different dates. There's no real logic to it.
