I'm 14 and my height is 4'11, am i going to get any taller?

Question

My parents don't think I'm going to grow any taller at all, since I'm probably going to be short like my mom but I'm alredy taller than her and when I was young my doctor said I'm supposely going to grow to be 5'4-5'6.
Don't tell me to go drink some more milk because I do and its not helping at this age. Any chance of me getting taller? or any exercises?

What type of exercise. Core exercising?

I've read somewhere height is not in genetics at all. And I'm not taking it for granted that I'm short I just want to grow maybe in the next few years and was wondering. Going on here and being a wise a*ss for something so little just makes you look bad anyway.

Answer 1

yes you will. i wasnt much taller than that when i was 14, and i'm 5'5 now. my mother is 5'1 and my grandmother is 5 feet tall.

Answer 2

Technically girls stop growing when they are around 20, but height depends on genetics, so if both your parents are short, you will be too. (Milk doesn't make you grow taller, it just strengthens your bones)

Answer 3

Exercise + Yoga will help, though you r late to think about it. Cycling and swimming will be good for you. In yoga- Tadasana (Stand on yr toes n try to stretch your arms up as far as possible as if trying to touch the ceiling), Walking in Tadasana, Hanging on a bar, etc will help you. Not only milk, you need soya proteins, vitamins and minerals. Good luck, u will make it to 5'6".

Answer 4

hey, drink some more milk. no, u got it easy. bein tall aint the greatest thing in the world either. but i live with it so surely u can get over being short.

Answer 5

yes you will get taller....you grow until like 16-18..don't worry...

Answer 6

my doctor told me women usually stop growing"heigh wise" about 2 years after their first menstrual period...and in my case she was right.
