Sweep before 40 weeks

Hi mummy’s, I’m currently nearly 35 weeks pregnant with baby no 2, extremely uncomfortable especially at night time it literally feels like my pelvis is being crushed also sounds like bones cracking🤢 I am hoping for a home birth, was looking for advice to see if anyone has been offered or has asked for a sweep before 40 weeks at all? With my first I didn’t have one as I gave birth 40+1 and my sweep would’ve been 2 days later, unsure if it’s offered in Scotland but just curious to see if it’s something I could maybe ask my midwife at next appointment, I’m green pathway and baby measuring just under 90th percentile :) tuia x
