Okay, I'm a 13 year old boy(turning 14 this month, on the 23rd), 5'1ish last time I checked, about 8-9 months ago. Before 6th grade, I was pretty much shorter than the rest of the classroom. When I hit 6th grade however, I had a significant increase in height as well as my voice beginning to mature and I THINK i started growing pimples, and I became average height compared to the other kids. That was amazing for me, until..
I'm now 13(or 14), and all the other kids seem to be growing taller than me, like going back to the ratio of when I was younger.
This is the summer before high school smacks us like a train wreck, and my friends are starting to grow taller than me, so the balance is gone.
My buddies are going through their growth spurt (busting out in pimples, etc), and I'm afraid I already HAD mine so I won't get one and catch up like last time and I'll be stuck under 5'5 for the rest of my life.
QUESTIONS:
-Did I mature too early?
-Will I continue to have growth spurts, even if they're not as significant?
-Is it possible for me to break out above the 5'5 area, or at least 5'4?
I put off asking this question to people because I felt kind of insecure talking about puberty to people because I didn't really trust anyone to understand. Until i found yahoo answers, you guys are like freaking experts.
