For your infant, which I assume you are going to take as a lap child, then you will need to purchase a separate ticket at 10% of going rates.... that is 10% of the adult F fare. For the infant you will need to telephone BA and have them ticket that separately for the same flights you are on. Look for flights with A class availability so your infant ticket can be priced in A not F fare class which will save a little.

dkerr's advice is relevant for an AA infant fare but with BA the lap infant fare cost is in avios when avios are being redeemed for the parent (plus 10% of the taxes).
From the BAEC terms and conditions:
15.3. Infants (less than 2 years of age) travelling with a Member on a flight Reward will travel for ten percent of the Avios Points required for the Member's flight Reward if they do not have their own seat. Children (2 years of age or older) and infants who require their own seat will be "charged" the full Avios Points for the relevant destination

Here are some threads where people booked the Chase 241 with lap infants:

They are a quite a bit more threads about infants and the UK Amex voucher.
If you have a household account you can add the infant to the household account and book that way. If you do not have a household account then you have to call to add the infant.
