Will I have a growth spurt soon?!


Question:

Will I have a growth spurt soon?

I am 13 born in 1993 on december 30 so most kids are a year older around my age. In mid March i bought a pair of shoes that measured size7, then this weekend i got new shoes and i measured size 9. Is this a indication that i will grow soon?


Answers:

Hmm, if your feet are getting bigger and you aren't, I'm going to guess that you're shrinking downwards into your feet! Quick, hang upside down!

Seriously, what you are seeing is probably cartilage growth.

Your feet and hands have a lot of it between the bones, and during a growth spurt, it expands in a matter of days, even overnight in studies done on infants. With all those bits of cartilage getting bigger all at once, the growth of your feet is more dramatic.

Yes, you will grow soon, but only if you eat well!
