18 weeks no work risk assessment

Hi, I've worked through 2 previous pregnancies and never had a risk assessment (different employers) and now I'm again in the position of not having had one. My senior has known for 8wks or so, the business directors 6 weeks and another senior within management who does a lot of h&s tasks has known for approx 6 weeks too. I know how to stay safe; I'm in a physical clinical job (drug handling/x-ray use/public facing/lifting/anaesthetics etc) and work in a safely managed environment but the two other pregnant staff members had theirs done very early on (in different team roles) by their managers but no one seems to think it's their job to do mine, yet I'm in the highest risk role. It's more about the fact that no-one seems to care and even having seriously struggled for 6weeks or so (hence having to tell a senior colleague) there has been no follow up to see if things have improved (they have mostly, thankfully).
Should I make a request? I don't want to draw attention to myself and create a fuss but it would be nice if someone cared!
Any encouragement/opinion would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hi @Beanplant - we're moving your thread over to our Pregnancy topic as we think that's a better fit for it. We also have a Work topic - if you'd rather it was posted there, just hit the report button to let us know.
