[quote=Anonymous]Elsewhere on this board it has been reported that 0-2 inches after period is more typical than the stats reported above. My DD is 13 next month and is shooting past her friends that developed earlier at this point. Also, note that I am not real confident in the doc's predictions about when the period will arrive. So she may grow 5 inches between now and its arrival as the fastest growth happens in the year and a half prior to menarch. My DH and I are tall at her last appointment the doctor thought she was "a year or so away" because she grew 4 inches last year. When I pointed out that she grew consistently 3 inches every other year and I had delayed this appointment by at least 2 months they backed off that promise a bit. They were using what they saw as a pre-menstrual growth spurt as a sign that her period would start soon. But to me the 4 inches may have just been the beginning of the spurt or pretty typical growth. [/quote]
