Babies can have up to 300-350 bones in their body after birth.
Babies have more bones so their bodies are more flexible to fit through the birth canal. As the baby grows the bones join together. A good example of this is the babies head, the bones in the skull are separated until about 18 months. The spaces between these bones in the skull is what is often called a soft spots.

Cartilage is flexable. During child birth, the baby is squeezed through the birth canal. Sometimes the bones need to be able to move in order to fit. Then once they get a little older, the bones become harder, and become real bones.
Babies have more bones than adults but the only way this is, is because numerous bones the babies have are not yet fused together. For example, the skull of a baby is several different bones, after a while they fuse together to form the complete skull.
A baby's skeleton contains 300 or more bones. These bones fuse together as the baby grows which explains why adults have less bones than babies and even children.
At birth, babies have 350 bones. By adulthood, many of those bones have fused. As adults, humans have 206 bones in the body.

yes, a baby has 300 bones at birth, but the bones join together so an adult has only 206 bones
at birth a baby has 300 bones and children and adults have 206 bones now
300
Jaguars have 4 babies in one birth

The average human, regardless of gender has 206 bones, a person may have a few more or a few less, but this is hardly cause for concern. Babies have near 300 bones at birth but through adolescence and puberty they will fuse together. You can't stop asking questions because SCIENCE IS AWESOME.
