Over the course of childhood and adolescence, many bones in the skull and pelvis fuse together. These are the largest and widest parts of a baby's body, having them composed of several loosely connected bones permits them to flex more during birth, making the process easier on both mother and baby. In adults it is more important for these same bones to be hard and strong, so by then they are mostly fused into a small number of larger bones.
It depends on how you define "bone". In absolute terms, we are born with the same number of articulated skeletal members as we have throughout our lives; however, at birth some of these "bones" have only begun to ossify, such that they wouldn't show up on an X-ray. To ossify is to "turn to bone." Anatomically, this refers to depositing calcium in the cartilage to make it harder. Since X- rays show only calcified bone, uncalcified cartilage won't show up, even though that part of the skeleton is there and fully functional. So, if you restrict "bone" to mean "only those calcified bits of the skeleton that show up on X- rays," then newborns have fewer bones. If, on the other hand, you refer to a each skeletal member as a "bone," then newborns and adults have the same numbers.
Because as you grow older some of your bones grow together to form single ones.
Infants have three separate bones in their skull when they are born. The areas between these bones remain soft prior to birth, allowing the skull to remain malleable so it may pass through the birth canal more easily. These bones naturally fuse as the baby grows, becoming a single bone by adulthood.

It’s weird, but sort of. Kids drinking too much Coca-Cola disturbs their growing a bit, since kids need milk and water to grow easier. Coke just slows down the growth process a bit if you drink too much because you’re not drinking milk. So the answer is sort of. It can disturb the process if you drink too much.

anywhere between 95-135 pounds it all depends on the girl.:) don't go thinking your fat cause your not,

i am 113 also and 115 pounds and 5' 1'' and everyone thinks im really skinny.

My friend who is also 13 is 140 pounds but is 5' 8'' and is still growing and they need to put on the weight to grow or else they'll look like a twig.

Okay,I'm 13 and my height is 5'1 (I'm pretty short) and my weight is about 36-37 kilos(around 80 pounds),but I'm very skinny,I think your weight is healthy.

I'm 13 and my height is 5'1 and my weight is about 105 pounds, and I'm not skinny or fat, so I'm average. :) I am 5'2 and weigh 135 and i dont like it but it just depends!

You may check a baby height percentile calculator so you would determine the percentile ranking of your child compared with other babies of the same age and gender.

The World Health Organization has already set a growth chart for boys and girls, based on the child's percentile ranking.

There are several factors that influences the child's ability to reach his or her maximum height. Typically, genetics play a major role, general health, hormones and proper nutritional value.

It is also important that the child eats nutritious foods that are rich in calcium, proteins and other multivitamins. Having enough sleep and exercise is also essential for a healthy growth.

An 8-year-old boy should not be any specific weight. Weight is related to height and body composition rather than age.Please feel free to ask the question again and include more detail. Alternatively, to see the distribution of heights and weights of children at various stages, please see the page link, further down this page, listed under Related Questions.
