Question: How many growth spurts do girls have?
Well I'm about 5'3 5'4 and my mom is 5'3 and dad is like 5'8 yah I know not that tall but by brothers are tall my oldest brother is 5'10 and my other brother is like 5'11 I'm just wondering how tall will I be ( im 13 goin on 14) and I havent gotten my period what age will I get it? My mom had hers at 13 thank please help

Answers:

hmm could go either way because usually its the opposite parent that passes height on to their child. Your brothers are tall even though your mum is short so it could go the other way in your family. You are above average for your height and will probably reach 5'6 or 5'7. Also boys and girls usually have 2 distinct growth spurts, from age 0-4 as you grow loads as a baby, and again from 11-14 for girls and 13-16 for guys on average.
