[quote=Anonymous]my son's appetite seems to go in spurts too, and I feel like it has to be related to growth but who knows. he's 12 and hasn't really started a big spurt yet. he generally grows 2 inches or2.5 in or so a year but that rate is accelerating some recently. I think he grew close to 3 inches last year. his feet seem to grow faster than the rest of him, now a size 11 (! help). at our recent 12 yo check up, the doc said that it's common for the feet to spurt first which is interesting. my son has always needed a lot of sleep, but now he will sleep for 11-12 hours easy on the weekends when he can. I think in his case, his spurt will come in the next 1-2 years. his nose and chin are bigger, he's looking awkward (in an adorable way of course).[/quote]
