[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My pediatrician wanted to give me growth hormones when at 11-12 I was tracking to be 4’10 or less. I was quite developed (no period yet) and very short. Thankfully, my parents got a second (and then third opinion). The other doctors took a look at my mom 5’4” and my dad 5’9” and said I would end up close to my mom’s height. At 13 I was 5’2” and at 14-15 went up to 5’3”. I just grew a lot between 11 and 13. Both DH and I were somewhat late bloomers (DH much more than me). I expect my kids to do the same. [/quote] Just to add, I was always the shortest in the class until (12-13) or last year of middle school when I became more average. I was still closer to the shorter side, but there a few girls shorter than me.I appreciate that for boys being short is usually harder than for girls[/quote]
