dad: 5'11

mom: 5'7

me: 5'4 (i am a girl and 13) but i have been this height for 3 years, and my mom had a big spurt when she was 14.

do you think i will be taller than my mom? I eat alot, and i dont eat any junk at all. just lots of protien packed salad, calcium, and other stuff.

  1. Probably. I'm 13, and i'm only 5'2 and 1/2. :[


  2. you'll probably get taller

  3. I thought that I was going to be short forever too, (Mom 5 11, Dad 5 7), and didn't want to be. Now I'm 18, 5 9, taller than 90% of my guy friends, and I hate it. I got my growth spurt at 14 years and grew 5 inches. It sucks now. Being unique is one thing, but sticking out like a sore thumb blows. So being short is not that bad!!

  4. I wish I was 5'4" !!!  I am a 35 year old woman and  I have been 5' tall since I have been 12 years old.   My birth mom was 5'3" and my birth dad 5'8".  God knows why I am the size I am.  Besides you are the average hight for a woman in the US.  So don't worry about it!   But it does sound like you will not grow anymore!  Enjoy who you are!

  5. people always ask this question and im sorry for saying this but why cant anybody realize that we are all different and your physical build is 100% based on only your parents! just because your mom had a growth spurt at 14 doesnt mean you will too

  6. sounds like you havent had your growth-spurt yet, give it some time and you will grow, i know i grew three inches in high school alone

  7. You might grow one or two inches more. Most women stop growing at 13 or 14 but it is possible for you to become the same height as your mom. If taller that would be suprising.

  8. id say about 5 8 1/2 because my mom is 5 10 and dad is 6 3 and im 6 foot and im the same age as you. so im guessing right inbetween

  9. you should get to be around 2 inches taller by the time you finish growing!

    some kids don't stop growing until 17 or maybe even later!

    you still have time!

  10. You shouldn't be a certain hieght and if you feel like you are tall from eating then you are wrong.It is because of hormones and the rest  of your body will catch up. Good luck!!!

    Please help me with my question!!:):):)http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...

  11. i TOTALLY know how you feel! EVERYONE in my family is tall! my dad is 6'1 and my stepmom is 5'8 and their kids will be huggeeee.

    ... im ALMOST 5'3, 14, and have grown an inch in the past 3 years.

    oh yeahh.

  12. Everyone grows at diferent rates, and you will more then likely get a growth spurt soon. Like,  I'm 12, my Dad is 6ft and my Mom is 5'5ft. I'm already 5'6.

  13. yo.. you havent had ur period yet! d**n that means u r gonna b d**n tall! and ur 5'3''!  yo... i need you tallnest genes.. hahaa

    you are definatley gonna grow taller or b the same height as ur mom...

    proably 5'9" or 5'8"

    im 14 and im 5'3"

    but if dont grow taller b proud of it..

    its harder done then said..

    im still praying ill grow taller! haha...

  14. You may not grow anymore but if you are eatting a balanced diet and working out and sports you may grow more. Though  you may get another spurt.

    Accept who you are.

  15. theres no telling....puberty has different effects on different people...you may only grow a few inches by the time your 18/19...you may not grow at all....or you could shoot up in a few months its impossible to tell

  16. im 15 and im only about 5'5".

    i have friends older than me who are about 5'2".

    it all depends. everyones different soo its hard to tell.

  17. Considering you haven't got your period yet, you probably still have potential for growth. Once you get it, you wouldn't be expected to grow another 5 inches, maybe just under 3 or something. Assumingyour weight was about 115 pounds, you are predicted to be about 5'7. If at this point you are thinner than that (like 80 pounds), you may be taller, and if you weigh more than that (like 125), you'll probably be shorter. http://www.webmd.com/content/tools/1/cal...
