There are 206 bones in the majority of healthy adults. Some women have a 207th bone, refered to as "birthing ribs" since they are beneficial during the pregnancy process. Additionally, infants are born with extra bones in the cranium and several other areas of the body that grow together and harden over time.

At birth the human skeleton is made up of 275 different bones.
As the body matures some of these bones, such as wrist and ankle bones, fuse together leaving only 206 bones in the adult body.
There are two major systems of bones in the human body, the axial skeleton and the appendicular skeleton.
The axial skeleton is comprised of the 80 bones in the skull, ribs, and sternum.
The appendicular skeleton has 126 bones from the shoulders, pelvis, and attached limbs.

In childhood there are 270 bones. As the child grows some small bones join to each other by various types of joints. Hence in adult they are 206. Mostly the facial & skull bones are joined. So, if you touch the top of head of new born baby it is soft because there is no bone formed at that time.
