Not quite, a child's baptism in Catholicism signifies their entry into the community of the Catholic Church and their cleansing of Original Sin - which Catholics believe everyone is born with. Confirmation signifies becoming a full member of the Church, as well as receipt of the gifts and fruits of the Holy Spirit.
What else can I help you with?
Is confirmation a repeat of baptism?
No. Baptism is the beginning. Most people are baptized just days after birth. There is no conscious awareness then. Confirmation is a reaffirmation of the religion that a person has been practicing most of his or her life. It is supposed to occur when the person is aware of his or her religion and is a very serious commitment in most religions.

How long does confirmation last after your confirmed?
The Catholic sacrament of Confirmation is a permanent "seal" on your soul. There is nothing to "last". As baptism makes you forever a child of God, and a Christian, which is an indelible change so does Confirmation seal you with the Holy Spirit and makes you an adult believer. Just as baptism, when you are an adult, does not change how you act, you have to do that, the baptism just makes it possible. Similarily with confirmation, you are sealed with the Holy Spirit and that is a complete difference in your soul from the way that you were before Confirmation, but whether and how long you act on that is up to you.
Is confirmation the same as baptism?
No, confirmation is not the same as baptism. Baptism is a sacrament that initiates a person into the Christian faith, while confirmation is a ritual in which a baptized person publicly affirms their faith and receives the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
Why do you think people being confirmed repeat the promises made for them at Baptism?
Baptism begins a process of entering the Church by grace. Confirmation perfects the same process by adding the Holy Spirit. The promises are repeated because they are the same.
