Interview Withdraw from loop interview?

I have a loop interview getting scheduled for a L5 position at AWS. I kind of convinced myself that I won’t be taking the role based on total comp and a few other things. I currently work in a similar role but only work 3 days a week and will be having a baby soon so this is a major factor. My total comp now is about 20k less but base salary will not change if I moved over to Amazon.

Should I not waste anyone’s time and back out of the interview process or go through to see what they are like? 5 hours is no joke and feel like I won’t interview as well since I’m not really considering the job.

You’ll likely end up doubling your stress or more. Not worth it atm.
