Pointing with fist closed ?

Has anyone experienced there baby starting to point (well I think that's what he is doing) but he does it with his arm stretched out and fist closed (almost like a super man pose 🤣) rather than with his pointing finger ?
Presume it will progress to a pointing finger but just wondering If anyone's experienced that. He is 11 months old.

Really normal. About 10-15 months is the age to look out for finger pointing. Before that, a fist has to do 😀

Interested in this thread?

Ah interesting! I knew about open hand pointing but never seen about a closed fist. He does it with such passion too 🤣

If anyone has experienced this, how long after did they point with their index finger ? X

Mine pointed with 5 fingers so just used to reach his hand out. It turned to a finger point about 15 months.

Interesting I'll wait for the index finger to appear !
