[quote=Anonymous]DS was a late bloomer, as was I and his dad. He also grew a steady 2" average per year. DS growth at 14+: 61.25 in at 14 63 in at 15 65.5 at 16 68.5 at 17 70 at 18 (yes I tracked his growth). You can see, he didn't have a huge spurt anywhere, other than the 3" between 16 and 17. He just kept a steady pace of growth. At 20, he's about 5'11.5". Not sure if he's done growing, but he's probably close to it. DH said he stopped at around 21. DS was always the shortest in his class (I'm super petite; DH is tall 6+). We were sure he'd be at most 5'9.5" per the calculator. DS had a bone scan at like 10 due to an ailment in his foot every time he ran. That went on for many months until I finally took him to an ortho. His bone scan showed he was 12 to 18mo behind. That coupled with hitting puberty late allowed him to grow past his friends who all stopped growing by 17. [/quote]
