Not to be too personal but if you've started your period then you don't have much growing left to do. I would guess you'll be 5'0 or 5'1 at the tallest. Also about doubling your height from 2 years, so not true. I was almost 3 feet tall at 2 and now I'm 5'1.

5ft1 or 5ft2 probably 5ft2. Everyone is different. Was your sister taller than you when she was 14 years old? Your mum is really short and your dad the lower side of average height. Have you had a growth spurt yet? I don't think you'll be tall because your parents aren't that tall (especially your mum). Everyone is different though. My Mum is only 5ft2 tall while her brothers are 6ft and 5ft10. The 6ft uncle married a tall female (5ft11)and they have one child who is 6ft2 and is female(16years old). I on the other hand am only 5ft2-5ft3, I hope I grow more. Good luck!

Your future height = {(Father's height - 5 inches) + Mother's height} ÷ 2= 5'1
The equations aren't always accurate. When I tried it on my height, my predicted height was actually 5 inches shorter than what I really am! So, I am taller than the equation said I would be. If you have tall grandparents, aunts, or uncles, you may end up being a lot taller than predicted by the equation.
We all are also taller when we have shoes on (Duhhhhhhh!). The soles of some shoes are 1/2" to 3", so when you are out in the world (with your shoes on), you will be taller than your actual height.
I hope that helps to answer your question.

Probably not tall but that is okay!! I am 21 and 5'2, and my husband is 21 and only 5'4!! My daughter is not expected to be taller than 5'0. Since you are only 14 you will probably hit another grow spurt this year, Good luck!

It depends if you've gotten your period yet. If you have, you've already reached 90% of your height at the time of your first period. One way to calculate is if you know how many inches you were on your second birthday and double that.

The best predictor of your adult height is the height of your parents. You have a VERY tiny lil mother, and you are already 14, so I would say you are either already at your adult height or might grow just a COUPLE of more inches.

They say to double your height at 2 years to see you adult height. Ask your mom about your height back then and see what you come up with!
Just a guess you will probably hit 5ft.
