Hello JBMOUNTainma,


It sounds like you've hidden alerts from these conversations in the Messages app. In this case, you'd need to do the following in order to receive notifications again from these conversations: Change message notifications on iPhone


Mute notifications for a conversation

1. In the Messages list, touch and hold a conversation.

2. Tap Hide Alerts.


You'll need to follow these steps. In Step #2, instead of selecting 'Hide Alerts' select, 'Show Alerts' instead, in order to receive notifications moving forward.


Let us know if that solves the issue for you.


Take care.
