I am 12 turning 13 on september 30. I am only like 5'1. Is this normal for a 12 year old? It seems everybody at school is taller. When will I get my next growth spurt?
Answer:that's fine. I know someone who's that height, and he's a sophomore in high school. you will get your growth spurt, most men don't experience theirs until about 14-17 and will most likely keep growing into their twenties.
Don't worry about it. Some guys don't hit their growth spurts until 15 or even 17.
That is kind of short I guess...but don't worry, you will grow.
ok nobody knows when you will hit a growth sprout.but it is ok.you are just an inch behind of the regular hiet wich is 5'2.
so it is ok.your body will decide.
your going to grow trust me when i was in 7th grade i was taller then some guys now that we are in high school im the short one
you are still young ..you will grow..but i don't think you will be six ft tall..but you will be taller..eat good food.

no your not short =]
you will probably get in within 2 years but dont worry about it
i know plenty of short boys just like you
some have their puberty early and some are late
