As long as you can stay focused on the interview itself, then no problem. Might be a good idea to read other peoples experience bringing babies to interview doing a VJ search with keywords such as AOS, interview, baby. The serahc bar is in the upper right corner, right under your username.

Personally, I wouldn't bring the baby. You'll be nervous already, and how will you feel if at that moment the baby decides to cry and you can't calm him/her down? That will make you more nervous, and might annoy the IO.

It will not hurt your baby to be away from you for a few hours. Crowded, boring waiting rooms with nervous parents are not happy places for babies.
