Email and Texts only update when phone is charging

It was rather strange but about 5 months ago, my email app would only ping that I had received an email when I plugged it into charge. When I do plug the phone in, I get usually around half a dozen to a dozen pings, and then while it is still charging it will ping me as it normally should. I didn't have much of a problem with this, but now it is also doing this with texts. Should I take it in to get it fixed or is this a software issue?
