Where growth stands at 11
The growth spurt is under way for many girls, which is why girls this age are often taller than boys.
The average girl at 11 has reached 88% of the average adult woman's height in the same charts (5′4½″). A girl who starts puberty late will be below average now and often catches up later; an early developer may be tall now and finish close to average.
Is my child's height normal?
Doctors look less at one measurement than at the pattern: a child who stays near the same percentile year after year is growing normally, whatever that percentile is. Talk to your doctor if your child drops across percentile lines, grows much slower than classmates, or is far below what both parents' heights predict.
