Referring to when JE got her first period... SE has started hers as well. She is 12 and three quarters, which is exactly 2 years later compared to JE. I'm very thankful (in fact had been praying for the delay!) for these extra 2 years - sorely needed to make up for the growth lost during her eating disorder days. While her doctor said the onset of menstruation has no impact on height, I'm still convinced it does and googling also says girls only grow 1-2 inches after that.
Luckily SE had a height spurt once her weight stabilised. At least she isn't a shorty-pants.
Hmm ok not bad
Incidentally JE did grow a few cm and is now slightly taller than me. She was gloating about that, not knowing that that actually makes me very happy hahaha.
Both of them are quite early. I remember it was form 3 during my time. Good that both of them got their tall genes from their father 👍😊
ReplyDeleteErm the father isn't tall either. My goal was just for them to be taller than me hahaha.
DeleteTallest in the family means tall to me. 😂
