Baby waving at nothing and smiling

My baby is almost 11 months and loves to wave at people when they say hello. However recently she started waving at nothing and smiling. It has been freaking me out completely. Is this normal?? Have you experienced this?? I’m scared bc I’m usually alone with her till night.

My 3yrsold son always plays on his own, so he often sings and expresses himself so freely even when no one is around. (such as imagining saying hi to humpty even when he doesn't have an egg toy) one time that happened to me and also freaked me out, but eventually he stopped doing it. he just talks and sings to himself now. no worries mummy, she'll grow out of it in no time, just her imagination going wild for now 🥰

happened to my older son for a short while (and usually just 2 of us alone at home). also freaked the daylights out of me cos he seemed to be smiling and looking to the same spot in the ceiling everytime! luckily after awhile he stopped... now 3yrs on, he complains of monsters in his room, so I duno if its related 😅

Hahaha.. they do that sometimes. my son used to point at nothing. observe her further, it may just be a phase.

not really but maybe she’s practicing? at least it’s making her smile?? 😅
