Answer 1

Have patience dude.

When I was 13 I was about you height and weighed 98 pounds.

By my senior year I was 6 foot 175lbs.  You are not done growing yet dude.  Give it some time.

Answer 2

don't eat carrots unless you plan to improve your eye site

Answer 3

Be patient.  You will grow.  My nephew is 15 and he just went through a heck of a growing spurt.  There is nothing that you can do that will actually make you taller.  Just make sure you have a good diet and get some daily exercise.

Answer 4

Answer 5

Don't worry you'll grow taler, you're only 13, by the time you're 16 you would have grown at least 6 inches.

Answer 6

get your knees done..

Answer 7

big shoes

Answer 8

i heard jumping makes your legs taller so try 100 jumping jax a day!  

Answer 9

take a pill i'm sure they have one to make you grow, they've got one for everything else.

Answer 10

you cant make yourself taller! sorry! =[

Answer 11

I was the same height at your age.

1.  Eat well.  Fruits, veggies, meat and milk.  Lay off the junk food.

2. Plenty of sleep.  Not the "sleep in till noon" kind either-go to bed on time, the same time every night.  You only grow during your sleep, so get plenty of it.

Best of luck!

Answer 12

be patient!

ask your parents if they were small until a certain age, but don't get hung up on your height, its not like you can stretch yourself :)

Answer 13

Sorry Kiddo, you are who you are...  Sorry it maybe in the cards for you to be a little person..  Work with it and be Blessed...  You will be fine...

Answer 14

All you can really do is wait and you'll grow.  Drinking milk and making sure that you're room is as dark as possible while sleeping(and that you get enough sleep every night) are both supposed to help.  

  You may also want to talk to your family doctor, I believe medicines exist that are supposed to help make sure you grow to the highest your genes will let you grow.  But they have to be taken while young(so you'd need to start within the next couple of years).

Answer 15

take vitamins

Answer 16

your growth continues untill 17yrs or 25yrs if there were some health/nutritional problems. so you need to eat more of protien and excercise well.  

Answer 17

Wait, im sure that you may have a growth spurt soon,

Answer 18

well i was quite short from ur age all the way to 16, probably no taller than 5'3-5'5 at 16. i also had troubles sleeping and it was like that from grade 9 to the end of grade 10. The summer of grade 10 i got a gym pass and did a lot of excersise i took vitamins and ate a lot healthier. ppl were quite suprised to see how much i grew in about a year span. I mean i'm still wanting to grow more, but it probably wont happen, im 18 and 5'11. I'm thankful i did not think about my hieght at the time when i wasent sleeping or else i would of been so frusturated.  

Answer 19

hit puberty:]

Answer 20

The Chinese just invented a way to get taller, and skinnier way faster.  They put you in this streatching machine and it streatches you a lot.  It works!

Answer 21

wear higher shoes

Answer 22

i guess the only way gettign taller is not staying the same from caffeine xD

Answer 23

nothing you can do, its all genetics

just lead a healthy life, don't consume caffeine, your only 13, you have until your late 20's to keep growing  

Answer 24

Get lots of sleep. I'm 11 and 5 ft. worked for me :D (but my parents are tall)

Answer 25

you cant really do much to make yourself taller, besides getting a lot of rest. when you sleep your spine stretches so your always an inch or so taller in the morning than at night.  the more sleep you get the more you should grow.

Answer 26

drink lots of milk and get plenty of sleep (8-9hrs) to reach your maximum height.

Answer 27

drink lots and lots of prune juice, its not that bad either but its got essential vitamins, and get some dairy in your diet
