Apple Watch Notifications

My Apple Watch is no longer notifying me when I have messages or emails. It did before I installed the latest update. Does anyone know how I can fix this? I've tried rebooting my watch and my phone. I made sure my watch mirrors my phone and the buttons to receive notifications are activated and still nothing.

Apple Watch Series 4, watchOS 8

Notifications appear on your Apple Watch or iPhone, but not both. If your iPhone is unlocked, you get notifications on your iPhone instead of your Apple Watch. If your iPhone is locked or asleep, you get notifications on your Apple Watch, unless your Apple Watch is locked. For more info, see:
