Date night yes or no?

Supposed to go on a date night with my hubby that I planned for tonight- our 9 month old is going through a clingy/separation anxiety phase though so now Im wondering if we should still go? we have a babysitter coming who I trust, but he hasn’t seen since he was a few months old in the nursery at church. I just can’t decide. We need a date night but I don’t want him crying the whole time we’re gone either😫
