Is one a sub group of the other? Does either term include toddlers?
I’m having this discussion with someone and we both thought the opposite from eachother and we were quite sure our way of thinking was the common understanding.

They are vague terms used in different ways in different contexts. Infant is generally on the younger end closer to birth and baby stretched out up to multiple years by some usage.
Newborn > infant > toddler with the option to call them a baby during all three. A child around a year old might be called an infant, baby, or even toddler.
Then don’t use baby again until they are in a relationship :P
That last got me, but you mixed > and <.
I used > as a directional arrow, not greater than as it wasn’t a comparison.
Although newborns are the best.
