well i think once you hit an age the person just stops growing.. but of course it's different for everyone. If you hit that age where you stopped growing then i dont really think there is anything you could do. But then i was like 5' 1" when i was in the 8th grade too, and slowly i think it took me more than one year until i got to 5'2" and i'm still 5' 2". >.>

After a while i got used to being my height and some what fell in love with it, except when im walking around in the hallways and these younger people are taller than me -.-. LOL ^^ well just hope i helped.

it's not always true that if your parents are short, means u will be short.. sometimes its jus not true
the short thing can be change.jus eat right ^.^

omgosh. that's creepy haha. my parents are around 5'5+5'6
i got my period when i was in 5th grade as well. i was always
the tallest one until 7th grade. then in 8th grade, my friends are all
taller than me now. like by an inch LOL. but just because your parents
are short doesn't mean you HAVE to be short as well. i see a lot of
families where the parents are giants and the kids are tiny.

chances are that you're not going to be growing much anymore, since you've had your period for a couple years now. (It seems that most girls stop growing around 2 years after they get their period).

Anyway, it's more than just drinking milk (trust me ). Make sure you're eating a balanced diet (with fruits and veggies) and don't forget to stretch and exercise!

Both my parents are short. (my little sister is taller than my dad now!)
I'm 6'0".
(we're all Korean, by the by)

... did you just call your period your "leaking thing"? Amazing.

Well, I guess it's cause you're still young, but later on in life, calling it "leaking" will be worse than just calling it your period, ahah.

I'm a guy, but 6'0" isn't that tall for most guys around here. (average height is probably like 5'9-10")
I used to be pretty short (and a bit chubby) in Junior High; I started having my growth spurt around 8th-9th.

You should actually be eating more now than what you used to.
Your body is growing and your eating habits should accomodate to that. (but don't forget regular excercise)

[addickshun]

i'm sorry to say that you won't really grow any taller
once a girl hit her first period, her growth slows down by heaps :x
just watch what you eat and remember to eat healthy!

[hellotiffy]

well you're only 13, you still have a few years before you can start freaking out about not growing anymore. chances are that if your parents are short, you're going to be short, too. same with me... ):

[x`aNNiie.]

I grew when i was 13. =] It's not all genetics, if it was, my brother should be really short as well, but he's more tall than short for an asian.

[aZn_012]

Continue drinking milk, eat donuts daily and stretch every morning and it should improve your height.

Your parents being short would genetically make you short too unfortunately.
