What is a normal height for a 13 year old girl?!


Question: What is a normal height for a 13 year old girl?
I know a lot of people say it depends on genes so I'll just say what I think is necessary for someone to calculate what my height should be.
My mom is about 5'4' and my dad is about 5'5". Both my grandfathers are very tall(I don't remember my grandmothers' height :/) I believe it's a rough estimate. I'm half Lithuanian (They have no average Female height but average male height is 5'9") and the rest is a mix (like most Americans). I'm not really fond of milk so I do not drink it much. I don't often have products with a lot milk in them...I normally get around 7 1/2 hours of sleep sometimes less sometimes more. I haven't grown since the summer either.

Thanks for anyone who answers!

P.S. I'm 5 feet. I don't mind mind my height, I live life to it's fullest regardless of how tall I am. I'm just curious C: Personally I like my height even though most are taller than me.

Answers:

well a girl is usually 95% done growing when her period starts. i was 5ft when i hit my period....my final height is 5'6". i actually hate it. but there is no "average" height every girl grows differently. Milk has nothing to do with growin, it just builds strong bones. you will continue to grow until your 18. i however quit growing when i was 17...but your sleep schedule is fine. it is all about genes. my mom is 5'3 and my dad is 6'2. my older brother is 6'1, and i came out 5'6 as i said before. you will prolly be around your mothers height...most girls are either the same height as their mother or a little taller, or shorter. but all im trying to say is nothing is wrong with you, you will grow a little more each year..when your about 18, your final height will be where it will stay.

my own life experience



If your parents are 5'4" and 5'5" then 5' for you is fine. You have several more years to grow. You might be taller then they are, or just as tall. Hard to say for sure. Only time will let you know.
