[quote=Anonymous]My oldest shot up 5.5 inches leading up to getting her first period (at age 12). She was a gymnast at the time and the growth spurt along with her foot growth caused big issues for her. She lost so many skills and had to relearn a bunch more. After her period, she grew maybe a total of another 1/2". She ended up being 5'5" and is the shortest in our family. My youngest got her period at around 11.5 and grew afterward. She never had a huge growth spurt like her sister - it was all very gradual. Her Ped said she was probably done growing and then she grew another 1/2" by the time she went for her next checkup. She's 14 now and she's now had two consecutive appointments with no growth, so the doctor considers her finished. She's 5'8.5". [/quote]
