What age do they usually occur? My little boy is four in a few weeks, he been waking the pass few night crying and in pain but complaining of pains in his shins and feet.

My older children didn't seem to suffer with them.

As a child I suffered really bad and for many years.

What are your memories or experience of them?

I never suffered with growing pains or knew anyone that had, but my eldest is 12 and has suffered really bad the last few months

She was in agony on and off and you feel helpless cos there is nothing you can to for them

Don't think I had em...apart from when my feet got bigger and my shoes got smaller!

I can't remember ever having them.

If it continues take him to the doc. Kids run and jump about all the time and he may have pulled something or more so it wouldn't harm to get it checked if it continues.

I thought that at first as my daughter is very sporty and dances, doctor said if its a pulled muscle or sprain it won't come and go, the pain will always be there.

Yes but he has only complained during the night , but maybe a little young for it to be growing pains

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

I remember getting them quite young but I always had a fever and migraine too. They stopped when I was 12 (not the migraines though) - which is about when I stopped growing.

If the doctor can't find anything find an osteopath who does children.

Both my boys have been through the 'my leg hurts' phase, usually when I'm asking them to do something though!

With the eldest I didn't know better so took him to the doctors and she found nothing wrong and said it could be growing pains but I just think he was pulling a fast one as he didn't complain much after that!

MAMOBA, miles and miles of bugger all (Aberdeenshire)

My boy gets growing pains. He's 4. We've actually seen a paediatrician about it now as he's very big for his age (has come down to the 98th centile on the charts now - he was off the chart for months). If in doubt, see your gp!
