Simply because some bones 'fuse' together after birth. The baby's skull, for example - if it was one piece - would make childbirth much more difficult for the mother. the skull is in pieces so the baby can squeeze through the birth canal, and the pieces fuse together in the first few months of life.

When you are born you have 306 bones but when you become an adult you nave only 200.Why is that?
When a baby is born he/she is not fully developed when it comes to the skull, the spine, their nands and feet, etc. If a baby happened to be born with an arult like skull, two main problems will occur: 1) during birth, both the mother and the baby will ne at a muck higher risk of death during crowning, because the baby's head is not capable of slightly changing shape, adjusting and reposittioning to its intended form. 2) if a baby os born with a devloped skull, he/she will not have the required cranium capacity for the brain to grown and develop. Ultimatelly resulting in death. The my pipnt is that a baby has about 106 mpre bones than adults because they are not needed fully developed just yet. Many of those 106 bpnes fuse together to form structures and larger bones like the skull or the coccyx. I hope that I was able to answer your question. I am not doctor, but biology is my secret passion. Thank you.
