And how tall are they? Do they still wear children's range clothes?

My DD3 is 13 and wears age 9-10 stuff, which is often a bit big round the waist. She's tiny in both directions. She has some adult size 4 stuff but its mostly big on her.

DD1 and DD2 are both a size 6 and still fit into age 10 clothes (DD2 has a few age 8 skirts). We're built small in this family - the only one of my DDs who doesn't fit age 10 clothes is DD4, who is 10! She's still in age 7-8 for the most part!

DD is 12. She is around 150cm tall and weighs about 30kg. I don't know the imperial, she is a metric child!
Her feet are size 1 -1/1/2 and she wears age 9 school skirts and tops.
In H+M she wears 10-12 size clothes. She has teeny tiny bosoms which she covers with crop top style bras.

DD is 12.5 years old. She's got size 6 feet. She is wearing a size 8 in trousers, thanks to curvy hips, and a size 8 in tops because she likes 'em roomy. She has boobs, 32 aa to be precise, and is lean rather than skinny. She is taller than her grandma already but that's no surprise as DH and I are both 6 footers. She wears S in Jack Wills, Hollister and Abercrombie and Fitch shirts. She will wear medium though. She wears their trousers in a 26 with a regular leg length, which she then rolls up.

She has some clothes that are children's age 11 - 16 but she rarely buys kids clothes now.

DD is nearly 12 & has size 1.5-2 feet. Wearing size 10-11 clothes.

DD is just 13 and slim with long legs. Age 13 jeans are a little too big on the waist and a little too short on the leg. Size 6 is a good fit.

My dd has been in adult clothes for a couple of years. She wears I think size 6 now (we are going shopping tomorrow so I'll be more accurate then) and has started filling out a bit over the last few months. She is 5'9" and still growing at the rate of knots. Her feet stopped growing a couple of years back at size 7. She's always worn clothes a couple of years older than her age, and dh is 6'5" so it's no surprise.

I send way more money on her clothes than mine, but she does look pretty fantastic (she has a lovely figure and great posture).

Dd is 5ft 4 with size 5 feet and wears a ladies 8/10, 30b bra

Occasionally she will find something in the children's section in a age 13 but tends to prefer adult clothes

I think her adult height will be around 5 10 as I'm 6ft and her dad is the same size

DD is 5'1" and is smaller than most of her friends. This is a little surprising as both OH and I are fairly tall (5'7" and 6'2"). I would like her to be at least 5'6" before she stops growing.

Bunbaker · 09/08/2013 21:04

DD wore size 6 women's jeans as age 12 were too short and too wide, and size 5 shoes. She was 5'1" and on the 50th centile for weight and height.
