No, abortion is not infanticide. In case you haven't noticed, they're two different words. They also have two different definitions. Abortion is the termination of a pregnancy, while infanticide is the murder of an new born infant.

For your convenience, I am providing you to definitions for both words, from dictionary.com:

Abortion:

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/abortion

Infanticide:

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/infanticide

An embryo or a fetus is not an infant, by the way (in case you weren't aware of that).
