[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you. She's about 4'9, and 12 years old. She's not the shortest in her class, but smaller than the average bear. Well-proportioned. Adopted from Eastern Europe--she was always tiny, and born prematurely. I just wanted the doc to reassure us that she's in the ballpark of normal, and, well, that didn't happen. [/quote] My DD was 4'7" at 12, and she is now 22 and 5'1". She grew an inch and a half halfway through college. Of similar ancestry to your daughter... you're fine.[/quote] Honestly this is irresponsible advice. You have no idea if her daughter is fine. Sher is two years post first menses and is 4'9". NOW is the time to see an endocrinologist.[/quote] +1 Girls typically grow an average of 1-3 inches in the two years after starting their period. Some girls grow more than this, beyond those two years, but most don’t. It’s worth consulting with a specialist.[/quote]
