4"11
75 LBS
Stage 2 of puberty.
Nothings really changed besides tad bit of pubic hair. Still not bushy or curly.
Mom is 5"3
Dad is 6"0
Bro is 6"0 and just turned 16
I am mostly on my mom's side for things.
I'm wondering how tall i'll be when i'm fully grown?
When i'll have my 1st growth spurt?
What's the biggest growth spurt you've heard of?
Is it possible to grow 12 inches in puberty?
Actually answer, no bullshit, "it dosen't matter" type of obnoxious and useless answers.

It is quite hard to predict how tall someone is going to be since my dad is 6'3", my mom is 5'5", I'm 6'3", one of my sisters is 5'10", and my oldest sister is 5'2" and she is 21 so she won't be getting any taller obviously.

You will have your first growth spurt very soon. My first growth spurt was when I was 14.

My biggest growth spurt was 4" or 5".

It is definitely possible to grow 12" during puberty.

Don't worry, seems perfectly normal. You will have a growth spurt within the next 2 years, maybe sooner if your brother is 6'0 at 16.

When you are fully grown you will most likely be around 5'8- 6'2 based on your family's heights. Of course you cannot be 100% sure how you are going to end up, just remember to eat healthy and get exercise and you should be fine.

I think more of your Dad and bros genetic make up and that includes height will show in you soon as you get through puberty -

A total growth of say 12 inches in height during puberty say up to age 18 is possible I guess most guys add a foot or more to height.

i think u would be around yur brothers height because he is your brother and one of my friends went up 8 inches in 1 summer last year so i think 12 inches is possible but my mom and dad are both short and my older brothers are all 510 and one is 5'8.. my dad is like 5'8 and i am 5'1.. althogh i should measure me again because that was a while ago and i look taller haha

I'm wondering how tall i'll be when i'm fully grown? We don't know, no one can tell. You could be a lot shorter OR a lot taller than your parents, but usually it's about the same as your father.
When i'll have my 1st growth spurt? Again, we don't know. Most boys have it between 14-17
What's the biggest growth spurt you've heard of? A foot in a a couple of weeks.
Is it possible to grow 12 inches in puberty? Yes, it is. It doesn't mean you will though, that's something your body really decides.

firstly, how tall were your brother and your dad at your age, you just turned 14 as you said?

and that're answers:

I'm wondering how tall i'll be when i'm fully grown? i think, somewhere between mom's and dad's height.
When i'll have my 1st growth spurt? i've read that a most common age for 1st growth spurt is soon after you get 2nd stage of pubes.
What's the biggest growth spurt you've heard of? around 40 cm = 16 in.
Is it possible to grow 12 inches in puberty? of course
