My mother is 5'7 and my dad about 5'6. I'm 5'1 and I thought I would be taller, but I guess not. I got my period when I was around 10yrs old and I heard about the growing two years after period and then kinda dimming down (yes the two years growth spurt happened to me, not necessairily height).
I'm just wondering if I will ever grow some more, my doctor said at around 14 you're not really supposed to grow that much so I'm thinking that might be it. So what are the chances of me growing to at least 5'4?
And can anyone guess how tall I'm gonna be or how many inches I'm gonna grow?
Thanks.

I was about the same height until i got out of high school then grew a few more inches. I wouldn't give up yet, and if you don't grow being a shorty can be fun to. you get to make tall people get things for you, or try to climb the shelves at the store.

you comprehend this would start up racist statements yet I won't even pass to those measures. you're incredibly short ofr a woman yet no longer that short. Atleast y ou could make your self seem taller with severe heels. think of approximately tall females' plight, they are in a position to't make themselves seem shorter through fact it fairly is incredibly obtrusive seeing a 6 ft woman attempting to droop down. Take some satisfaction on your top.

girls can continue growing up to 16. when i was 14 i was 5'6. by 16 i was 5'8. i started my period at 12 and i was shorter than 5'6. those rules did not apply to me. i can't even tell you if they are factual or just standards. you can still grow. i would expect maybe another inch maybe inch and a half. i don't think you'll make it to 5'4 sweety. but i guess anything is possible!

Think I agree with colie. Probably got an inch or two left to go.
Look at the bright side though. Lots of people think short girls are cute. (Being a short guy just sucks)

I was 5'1" at 14, too -- I'm now 5'4" and probably stopped growing at about 21.......
My parents are taller than yours, though, (5'9" and 5'10") and my brother was 6'4" (!) and my sister's 5'7" -- but don't give up!! :-)

I bet you will grow. Probally at least to 5'6. Since your mom is tall, I am sure you will be too. Best wishes!!
