Hello Lori,


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.


We see that your Apple Watch is not waking when you raise your wrist. Without knowing just what you have tried, we would recommend taking a look at the following support article, there are a a few things to check in the "Wake the Apple Watch display" section.

One other thing to check is if Theater Mode is turned on, see how to do this in this article:


Use Control Center on Apple Watch - Apple Support


Best regards.
