To the best of my knowledge, you can apply later for her once she has got her passport. That application should then be treated as normal dependent application

Thanks for your reply, do we have to wait until we receives our passport back or can we make another application referencing the previous application, another question that I have is do my wife have to give any english language test for extension, I have done Master's from here I know I don't have to do any test but does she have to?

please advice

If your child (304-309) is not travelling, then you do not need to make an immigration application for leave to remain for her/him (Section 4a - Children born in the United Kingdom who are not British Citizens).

1. INTRODUCTION
....
This section relates to children born in the United Kingdom on or after 1 January 1983 who are not British citizens because, at the time of their birth, neither of their parents was a British citizen or settled here. Such children do not have the right of abode and are subject to immigration control. They are not here unlawfully, however, and are not required to apply for leave to remain (see ANNEX P, paragraph 11 if further guidance is required on this point)...

You may wait and include her/him in your extension or settlement (except under long residence) applications; OR immediately after a parent is granted settlement/PR, their child is entitled to register for British citizenship (Section 1(3)), irrespective of child's immigration status.

Else, if s/he is traveling, then see also New Born Baby - VISA stamping.
