AIBU to have lied to get a test?

For no other reason than my peace of mind?

I don't have any symptoms, none that are even not considered Covid symptoms i.e. cold etc...

But I am pregnant and getting very close to my due date and I'm terrified that I'll turn up at the hospital and be surprised by a positive test and DH will have to leave.

I have lied that I have symptoms and ordered a home test kit purely so, on the off chance it's positive, I am prepared rather than sprung upon.

There will be many more getting tests without the listed symptoms if the £500 payment for all comes in, could be quite a windfall for a non working couple
