Midwife didn’t write in 28 week measurement

Following my 28 week appointment the midwife measured my bump but didn’t record this on my notes. Should I contact and ask to be measured so it can be recorded?

As a brief back story I have a five year old who had to be born via Caesarian under general anaesthetic due to meconium and he was quite ill in NICU for 12 days. Due to this I am classed as a “high risk” and under consultant care. My next appointment is now a telephone one with consultant at 32 weeks and my scan for that has been cancelled due to Covid 19.

I have seen other people say these measurements aren’t accurate anyway but naturally following my previous birth experience and the fact that we are in the middle of a pandemic I am incredibly anxious. Should I text the midwife and check or just leave it until I see her next at 34 weeks?

Thanks for any opinions on this
