[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband is 6’2” and was never a tall kid / tallest kid in his class. He continues to grow all through college - needing longer pants. I’ve seen pics of his work his friends in jr high and HS where they are all roughly the same height. The other men are now 5’9-5’11” as adults. You never know. [/quote]

yes, my husband is 6'4" and grew 6" of this[b] in college[/b].  We went to his high school reunion and that's all anyone said to him:  "nice to see you!  holy crap: when did you get so tall?"[/quote]

This is how the men in my family are as well.  They all continue to grow several inches in college.  I (female) even went from 5’5” to 5’6.5” in college.

Many of my nephews and my brother were not over 5’11”/6 ft when they graduated HS and now they all range from 6’1-6’4”.   I’m fairly certain this will happen to my sons based on their predicted height from 2 years old and our heights.  Dr showed us the formula.  Now as tween’s they are more along 50% height which doesn’t factor into delayed constitutional growth down the road.  Some that grew early will be high on the curve at 13, but not at 17/18.

It’s obvious this isn’t a hormonal thing so don’t worry about it as there is really nothing you can do.

Get sleep, exercise and eat healthy.  We are all organic for meat, fruit, vegetables and dairy products. I’m not feeding them chemically processed shit and hormone laden crap to try to get height and early puberty.[/quote]
