What age?

Question

At what age did your children start to get growing pains? My daughter just turned 3 this past week and she’s complained to me about 2-3 time in the past few months about her legs hurting bad. It gets to the point where I have to give her Tylenol and massage her legs for her. I feel so bad. :( is it normal to get them this early??

Answer

3 or 4 she's about to be 6 and has them a few nights every couple months.

Answer

About the same. He’s 4 and gets them once in a while. I give him a warm bath and massage his legs.

Answer

I dont remember having any as a very young child, but had massive ones around 6th-7th grade.  I would cry and cry because they hurt so badly.  I think all my parents did was give me heat or ice, rub/massage the hurting area if I asked, and give me Tylenol or ibuprofen.

Answer

My son is 3 and gets them- mostly in his feet at night. I will go in and rub his feet for a while. ☹️

Answer

My daughter started at age 3 and is now 6 just last years she was still having pain. Specially when the weather is cool. I have to massage her legs with Vick’s vapor rub and put on some of my hubbies long socks on her. Only thing that has worked for her. This year she hasn’t had any more pain, hopefully she has outgrown it.
