Baptism was something you did when you joined a religion as an adult but I think the belief that unbaptised children don't go to heaven made people want to baptise their children as soon as possible. To do that parents had to make the baptismal promises on behalf of the child. At confirmation the child takes on those promises itself. Recently the Catholic Church decided (like Islam and others) that unbaptised babies do go to heaven after all. But I can't say for other Christian groups.

What are the 3 reasons for the break between the Catholic and Orthodox Churches?

The three main reasons are: 1) Papal claims of supremacy, 2) the change to the Creed (filioque), and 3) papal teachings about purgatory and indulgences. In addition to these, there were a few other lesser reasons, such as the use of unleavened bread, the laity receiving communion as bread only, rather than bread and wine together, the separation of baptism and confirmation, and the compulsory celibacy of Catholic clergy, the use of statues, and not allowing divorced people to re-marry. However, most other beliefs about the Christian faith remain the same.
