[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was always tall as a kid (99th percentile) until around 5th grade. Then slowed down and stopped growing by age 12. I am 5'3'' (female), but when I was in early elementary the pediatrician told my mom I'd be around 5'6''. My father is 5'9'' and mom is 5'3'' so my true height makes sense based on my parents' heights but did not follow the growth curve. [/quote] Very similar for me, but I'm 5'5. Parents are 5'4 and 6'2 and I was predicted to be about 5'8. Got my period at 12 and didn't grow an inch after that, which is apparently typical for women in my family. My mother' brothers are both over 6 feet and I suspect if my parents had had a son he would have been tallish. [/quote]
