Control panel on apple watch gone

I just updated to watchOS 10.1.1 and I can't swipe up to get to my control panel anymore. It shows the weather and tips when I swipe up, nothing else. i used this all the time to ding my phone when I wasn't sure where I left it and now it's gone.

According to Use the buttons and screen on your Apple Watch:

Press the side button

  • Press to show or hide Control Center.
  • Press and hold to use Emergency SOS.
  • Double-click to use Apple Pay.
  • Press and hold to turn your watch on or off. 

If you have Apple Watch Ultra or later, you can customize the Action button to access your favorite features quickly.

If you haven't updated watchOS, learn how to use the side button.
