haha M just turned one on 4/28 and only recently started pointing. But my nephew, born 4/20, has been pointing for about a month, I think.

I don't know when it started but DS points at things and he is 14 months.

LO started pointing regularly a little before 12 months. He's been obsessed with our ceiling fan and will often point at it to let us know he wants it on.

11 months or so.

10 months, I think. It's been a while, but not a really long time.

@littlek: I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing. Can he follow your "point?" From what I've been told, that's a more important skill. Sometimes, I think LO could do certain things, but just doesn't want to.

At 11 months he would point to objects he wa interested in or wanted...but it wasn't super consistent. Now at 14 months he points at everything.

But are you asking if your LO should be able to point at a named object (like if you ask him to point at a car)? I don't think that would happen for awhile unless it's something they see regularly. Like, my LO will point at dogs, fans and lights if I ask him to but wouldn't point at a car or watch or whatever. He just started pointing at our noses when we ask but won't point to his own nose.
