Test for toddler as well as self?

Sorry if this has already been asked, I can't find an answer anywhere!

I've ordered a track and trace test as I'm showing symptoms, my question is do I also need to order one for my 2yo who is also showing symptoms?

My husband seems to think not, as he thinks our sons results would be the same as mine- so if I'm positive we will assume he is positive or vice versa (especially as we came down with symptoms at the same time and seem to have the same thing). Is this correct?
Not sure how we would manage to swab him if we did need to, so would like to avoid that stress while he's poorly if it's not necessary. Our household will all be isolating regardless.

If he has symptoms it might be worth testing him. Often for children you just do the nostrils
