[quote=Anonymous]OP, my son is also 15 (just turned last week). At his annual checkup he measured 5'3.25" which puts him in the 5th percentile for height. He has ALWAYS been in the 5th percentile. When he was younger I asked about growth hormones, but we had his wrists x-rayed and there is no medical issue found so the pediatrician was not in favor of it. Like yours, our pediatrician says she is confident my son will hit a growth spurt based upon his build and how all the other males in our family are over 6' tall. I am always encouraged when other mothers share stories of how their sons finally shot up after being the shortest one in their class all their lives... I'm sure our sons will get there some day![/quote]
