Have done this but only in J/C but better ask BA if they allow infants in F with parents redeeming miles.
Although, I have to call JL separately when AA miles were used to book the flight just to make sure that the process is seamless between AA to JL

10% of the F full fare plus surcharges and taxes. A few thousand dollars. (E.g. LAX-NRT is 11,900 USD, including 120 USD in taxes, so the infant fare for a 1 year old would be around 1200 USD including taxes)

I suggest you downgrade yourselves to business class if travelling with an infant (if you want to avoid adding a 1,000 USD cost just for the baby cot in (the same baby cot in First, biz and even Y).

Infant Fare
Infant may travel on an Infant Fare equal to 10% of the Adult Fare. The discount may vary for some fares.
Seats may not be occupied.
The Child Fare (see below) applies to infants who occupy a seat.
Some fares may not have corresponding Infant Fares.
Notes
If an adult accompanies two infants, the Child Fare will apply to one of the infants.

Infant : Age 0 to 1 (fare is 10%, and does not get separate seat)
Child : Age 2 to 11 (fare is 75%, and does get separate seat)
FYI, One adult can accompany maximum of two infants. (e.g. twins)
Infant 1: Infant fare with no seat.
Infant 2: Child fare and occupy a seat.
Child : Age 2 to 11 (fare is 75%, and does get separate seat)
