[quote=Anonymous]Our child was extremely small and entered puberty much later than her peers (first period at 16). She had something called constitutional growth delay: https://www.massgeneral.org/children/growth-disorders/constitutional-delay-in-growth-and-puberty#:~:text=Constitutional%20delay%20in%20growth%20and%20puberty%20is%20a%20condition%20in,and%20a%20delayed%20bone%20age. When we were growing up, this was just referred to as: being a late bloomer. Both my husband and I had kind of delayed puberty, and our other kids had it as well but not as pronounced. The point is that once puberty starts, the kid starts growing normally and often reaches the same height as her peers. It's apparently a thing in my family. My dad grew taller while in college as did my son. They didn't really stop growing until they were 21 or so.[/quote]
