No it is perfectly normal. There is a part of an infant's brain that has not developed (left inferior prefrontal lobe) and so it is perfectly normal if you cannot remember much of your early childhood years. Also take note that people are different.

What part of memory retains information for a few minutes or less?

Short term memory is responsible for hanging on to information until it can be stored in long term memory. Short term memory is similar to your ROM, and is "erased" after a little while unless you transfer it over to the "hard drive." Part of the trouble in learnning new facts is trying to move them from the short term memory over to the long term. It often takes 20 repetitions before you remember something.
