Question:

Answers:
Hmmm. I think so. Drink a lot of milk. If you don't like it, add some flavor like chocolate or somethin' else.

Other Answers:
More than likely you will, ask your parents if you have any reatives over 6' tall

if you climb a ladder or stairs or step up on a box even if you put on shoes you will be taller.

that is like the same thing excpet my moms 5' 8" my dads 5' 1" im 5' 9" so i think u will grow to be 5' 7" i think or taller

Are you a girl or a boy?

If you're a boy, almost certainly.

If you're a girl, have you started your period yet? If not, almost certainly. If so, how long ago?

You can't know for certain when you will stop growing, but boys grow longer than girls do and a good guestimate for girls is a year after the onset of menstruation.

I think u can
but then it depends on ur body hormones
Is any one in ur (mom or dad) of less height ??

coz in my family my grandmother was short and in our my sis didnt gain much height as we others have got it

so i guess it totally depends on ur life style and ur genes

im not sure that sounds sort of like my family im 4'11 and im 15 i dont think im gonna get any taller

if you haven't reach puberty then yes you will. but you're only 13 you still have plenty of time to grow taller. just eat healthy and excercise regularly. good luck!

I'm guessing you will probably still grow. Your pediatrician probably has a growth chart that records your measurements from the time of your birth, or at least since you were quite young. Usually the charts are great predictors of future growth. In the case of my three teenage daughters, they have been right on the money.

Ask your pediatrician if you can take a look at the charts. If you follow the curve of your previous measurements you can track pretty closely where you will plateau on the charts. It is really likely that your pediatrician will help you sort it out, and you can probably get a look even without an appointment if you are really concerned.

Give your doctor a call. It's actually pretty cool to see how tall the chart predicts you will become.

Yes, you probably will. Females continue to grow until the approximate age of 18. Males on the other hand continue to grow into their 20's. You also can not go by mom & dad's height alone. Genetics is very tricky and sometimes skips generations. Also, ask your mom to make you a doctor's appointment. He or she can give you a very close estimate of what your adult height will be. What you eat is not going to make you taller, however strenuous weight lifting will stunt your growth.

Giving us the info won't help us much because it's according to your genes. I am 14 ( by the way It's my birthday today, It's just today that I got 14!) and I stopped growing taller till a certain point beacause I got my menstrual cycle(period) , If u have it since a long time and didn't get taller, maybe you will not get any taller. But if u r still getting taller, that's better. If you, for example, have short parents, it is not necessary that u become short like them. Don't be so much concerned about that thing. It's not Life or Death.
Anyway, Are you Tall or short?
