[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Peak height velocity is usually 2 or 2 1/2 years after the start of puberty. They still grow after the peak height growth, but at a slower rate. [/quote] This, folks, is the correct answer. Yes, growth can come in straight-line spurts, or start/stop/start again, everyone is so individual, even siblings' growth can be very different from one another. A pediatric endrocrinologist can't even tell you exactly how/when your child will grow (just essentially if they will continue to grow, based on an x-ray of growth plates). [/quote]
