Lets get a few things straight....

I figured today was the perfect time to get a few things out. For one, I am stalling with working out. I still have a bit of a cold (not nearly as bad as this weekend) but I need to get back into the swing of things and when my daughter is having a nap is usually the best time). Since I have a cold, I guess I am not feeling very motivated with the excersise department.

Okay, I got an email from a client of mine that I have done readings for back in 2008. She has still yet to conceive. Shes VERY mad at me for some reason that she has not gotten her bfp.. please please everyone, realize that I am not the one that can get you pregnant! My insight provides you with a month your child will relate to, and provides you with a personality reading of the child that I am being shown. Most of my readings will line up to the current year the reading was given, or the year after. Rarely has it gone past that. Unfortunetly there are rare cases where it has, and its out of my control. I would LOVE to help you all get pregnant, i try and provide as much information as I can in regards to what medically might be wrong, or even providing hope to lift off the stress your experienceing associtated with trying to conceive. So emailing me with a very negative email hurts. I would love nothing more for everyone of my clients to email me with bfp news and confirming gender when they find out, or even the birth of there little one! But I can't get you pregnant.. thats something that you need to continue trying with, with as much hope and positiveness as you can muster. I am ALWAYS here for support.

If for any reason, your reading has gone past the time frame that I have given you, I am more than happy to look again to see if anything has changed for you. All you have to do is ask.

My next thing.. RUBY.. I really dont want to talk about her, but have been getting quite a few emails from clients that have tried her and NOT received their readings. (And this is not just one client, but many). This includes a recent client of mine who paid over 6 months ago to Ruby, sent 7 emails and NEVER received it. I have told everyone who has contacted me and complained about her, to email her demanding a refund if she does not provide her reading as promised. A few of my clients have been told a specific date to not even get it by the promised time, and this is with them paying an ADDITIONAL fee to expedite their reading request!. File a complaint with paypal to get your money back, and then if she provides the service as promised, close the dispute. Ruby if your reading this, you REALLY need to get your act together. Get more organized or take on less work. Its not fair to everyone with the way your doing it right now and causing all these problems. I dont like to see people being taken advantage of and I believe that is what your doing.

Lets end this post on a positive note.. leave a comment in the post, and be entered to win a 25.00 family bypass reading done by me. Contest closes FRIDAY night! I will announce the winner then!

I have more of a question rather than a comment. What about those of us who are not trying to conceive, will those time frames still work for us when we do finally start to trying to conceive? Or when we start to ttc should we get a new reading? Like in my case more than anything I would love to have another baby, but I'm waiting until my partner is ready. Thanks for everything you've done for me, the paid and the free predictions if you've done for me! They have been very helpful!

Cheri,
I just wanted to say that I am truly sorry that someone posted an email that has hurt you I know that is very hard to read. I know for me you have really helped me in the past and it means the world to me. I try to stay positive when it comes to the TTC thing but I know that sometimes it can be really hard on our emotions...sending you lots of hugs your way... ;o)

Hi Cheri. I had a reading done by you in 2008 that didn't YET come true but I would never be mad at you. I still believe that your reading will come true (hopefully this month :-)) but if it doesn't it won't be a big deal. The fact that you saw a baby in my future gives me hope and some days even that is hard to cling to but when I'm down I always remind myself of your reading and it makes me feel better. Thanks for all that you do keep us long timers feel hopeful! Keep your chin up. :-) Danielle T.

I'm still waiting for my 2008 prediction to come true. But I haven't given up hope yet! Hopefully I'll be e-mailing you with my BFP soon.

Hi Amanda

Good question... if you received a ttc reading it would relate to the next child to come.. so yes, when you decide to start ttc, this will line up to the child that comes next:)
So unless you experinece a m/c (I can't predict those) thats the only thing that would alter the order (or you deliberately avoiding the month I connected! lol).
Your always more than welcome when you start to ttc again to email me and I can see if it has changed:)

Katie said...

Cheri, no matter how many people direct their frustrations at you, you should still know that you have given so many of us such hope! I wasn't quite sure how to go on after miscarrying, but knowing that you saw a baby coming again right away has kept me strong. Don't let one peron's misdirected frustrations get you down!

Diva Loca said...

oh man...that's what i've been doing wrong...all along I thought my hubs was the one that could get me the BFP - i should have just come to you! ha ha ha

keep smiling!

Kathleen said...

Keep being positive! There are many who appreciate you.

I am sorry some people are being negative towards you, at first I thought It was me you were referring to, but then you mentioned the negative and woah, thats not nice! This is advice, guidance, not a direct solution to a math problem, or an appointment that is set up, if anything your readings should be taken as encouragment, that no it hasnt happened yet, but its still "in the stars". Thats how I see it. and Ruby, wow. it is easy to get overwhelmed but I have always noticed if you are honest and straightforward about the situation 9/10 times people will understand and sympathize, but to straight up ignore, is not right.. :)

Unknown said...

Hi Cheri. I've really been considering a reading by you. My husband and I have recently lost a pregnancy and are devastated by it. We already have a daughter who is our joy and we'd love to give her some siblings. I'm impressed by your website and what you stand for! Unfortunately, I know how unfair people can be, I'm sorry you're going through some "drama" but it seems unavoidable at times! As long as you're doing the right thing that's all you can control!! Stay positive!

Sarah said...

Hang in there and stay positive, you give a lot of people hope :)

Cheri,
You've done a few readings for me and we haven't seen anything yet but I would never be mad at you. My personal opinon is that this is something fun that may or may not provide some insight. I think sometimes those of us who struggle with infertility want to find a quick answer and someone we can blame, I don't agree with it. We are all on our own paths and what is meant to be will be. I am sorry to hear that someone would be so upset with you when what your offering is such a positive amount of energy.

Kate said...

hi Cheri,
You've been an amazing support person for me over the years of TTC, now we wait for the arrival of baby in June. I can't Thank you enough. I'm sorry that someone feels you're to blame for not conceiving, maybe they should look at themselves before blaming others.

Red Charlotte said...

You've always been very professional and great to work with and I really appreciate that. Thank you Cheri! I got my BFP and on Thursday I have my gender/anatomy ultrasound.

Don't worry, I promise to email you when the little one is born to let you know how your prediction turned out!

All the best - Charlotte

LoriN said...

I'm surprised someone actually got upset with you! I can see being stressed by the situation, but honestly. Hang in there, try to not let it bother you:) My last prediction came true the year after my reading, and we have a beautiful baby boy now. I was also wondering about future predictions when not ttc....so thanks for answering that question for us. Keep smiling!

Katrina said...

You've done a reading for me...unfortunately, I can't find the email from it and maybe that's because we have moved. So hopefully whatever you said because I can't remember, will come true, and if it doesn't, you are still a blessing for even taking your time to read for ME!

Thank you!

I am going to email you right now :)

Hi Cheri

First of all about the exersise thing, why rush into it? Just kidding! It doesn't really help when you have a cold. My thoughts anyhow! Sorry your getting some negative feedback. Really i feel its not in your hands. Its too bad hopefully your client has better luck soon. Its probably nice to give hope to someone that may make them feel better on the outlook of things. As for Ruby well, she is a card! Enough said.
Have a great day!

This is what I had to do, file via paypal, she ventually gave me my reading.

I have no motivation for exercise. I think my will to do it is stronger than what actually happens. LOL. Dont worry about any nay-sayers. Im crossing my fingers for my BFP, Im sure it will happen one of these days~!

WadesX5 said...

Cheri, I'm so sorry that someone has sent you a hurtful email. I absolutely love you, you've given me 2 correct predictions for conception dates (for the last you predicted girl and he was a boy, but that was actually perfect for us in the end) and are spot on with the personalities of all 3 children. Don't let anyone bring you down!!!

Hi Cheri

I think everyone needs to keep the faith and believe .I had a reading done by you a few years back after losing my little one and you told me March well March came and no bfp so I asked you again and you said July well July came and yep both conceive and bfp month for me was due early April but baby arrived in March so you were right the first time both your months lined up.You also taught me the power of positive thinking you suggested I read the secret and at the time it was what I needed as my Mum also had terminal cancer and passed 3 days before my bfp so I just wanted to thank you and let you know that when I was at my lowest you were always there just for a chat and I will always be grateful for that :) .

Hi cheri,
Sorry you have recieved negative e-mails from women who don't get their bfp within the time frame you gave. I have gotten a reading too and pray that u are right but we have to remeber that it is for fun and the purpose is to give us hope! I appreciate the readings that you do to try and help women like me especially when you dont have to.ex like the free ones!!!!

Unknown said...

Even if your accuracy were nothing more than chance (I don't think that's the case), it gives desperate woman a glimmer of hope. I hope you recover quickly from this recent attack.

Not only does our next IVF date give us a due date that lines up to your reading, my husband has now mentioned he'd like for us to try for a second child of our own. Who knows. Maybe that boy you saw for child #3 will end up being mine to keep and raise. :)

Unknown said...

Hi Cheri!

Wow I am so sorry that someone sent you an email that got you so down! The time and effort you put forth for women who are trying to conceive is so generous of you, and it isnt fair for someone to be so nasty to you for just trying to help and show a ray of positivity in their life!
I havent had a reading done by you (yet) but I still hear so many good things about you on the pregnancy boards and you truly do give so many women hope and something to look forward to! I find even yoru blog is positive and its why I check in so often!

I hope that you are able to put this persons negativity behind you and realize that so many other people truly appreciate you! And I also hope your cold goes away too!!!

Danna :)
ps.. dont worry about the exercise :) i suggest a nice nap while your daughter is sleeping :) maybe that will help you get over your cold sooner!

I've had two readings by you and they both came true but I lost both of them. My last reading was said for nov so i thought maybe i'd conieive then but nope so i'm thinking if I concieve this month i'd give birth in nov... Like you said a month comes through but it could either be bfp, concieve or birth month.. I'm keeping my fingers crossed this is it for us.... cheers

Wow, I'm sorry people have been hurtful. Thats just unfair and frankly mean. TTC is super hard and we all need to understand it will happened when it's meant to.

Krystal said...

Unfortunately my prediction last year didn't come true, and you've been generous to give me updated one but unfortunately it hasn't happened still. However I'm still holding out hope that something will happen.

I just realized when I was organizing my folders I deleted the one with your name on it :( Now I don't know if your prediction last year could have applied to this year at all. That makes me sad since it had all the information since I got one of the pricier ones.

Life said...

Well, even though I still don't have a BFP, I looked to you just for hope. Your prediction just gave me hope for what someday might be. We have been trying about a year and its frustrating for me that so many in my family are heavey drinkers or some even were doing drugs and they all seem to get pregnant in the blink of an eye, and here I am living a better life than that and doing good things and treating my body nicely and I can't seem to have that BFP. You gave me hope because funny enough things you described in my 'daughter' are so "me". So even though it hasn't happend, I have hope it will. Should I be mad at you if it never happens....NO. That would just be wrong as you can't control my life, you just told me what you saw, but whose to say something didn't change it after the fact. Hang in there. Some people just need to get their frustrations out by taking it out on others. You give more people hope when they need it.

Shirley said...

Hi Cheri,

My original prediction has yet to come true, however, when I was having problems at home with my husband in September you was the biggest help and friend a person could ask for. My marriage was saved and you gave me some light to find my way out of a hurtful dark tunnel I felt like I was in.
Don't take the negativity to heart. Like others have said in previous posts sometimes when a person is hurt in ttc they lash out on others.

I feel you are gifted and a truely wonderful caring person.

Shirley

Unknown said...

Hi Cheri,

We're still waiting for your prediction to come true. I cannot believe how people can get mad at you as the power to get BFP resides with ourselves, not you. That's why we start IVF last month. You're always there to answer additional questions I have even though I didn't pay extra money for the service. I'm grateful for your support. Keep positive!

Sharon said...

People need to remember that we our responsible for ourselves and we can at any time change our own destiny, whether we know it or not. If you give a reading and it doesn't come true, it isn't your fault. Maybe we made a choice somewhere along the way that made our future change. What you do is great and im sorry someone was negative toward you.

motherof2 said...

Continue what you are doing! You cannot make everyone happy! Some people like to blame others for things not working out in his/her favor. Hope you get to feeling better soon!!

Cheri,

Thanks girl for speaking on about Ruby. I am glad to see you stand up for those who need it most. Also, I think people sometimes get sooooo hopeful about getting pregnant, that they hold on to anything they can. Maybe that was why she was a bit upset with you. We can't put the blame on anyone. What is meant to be will be. I hate that saying but I have had to learn to accept what has happened in my life. Thank you Cheri for being there for us :o)

Miranda Johnson said...

Hi Cheri, I am a previous client that conceived very close to the timeframe you gave me back in 2008. My son is now 13 months old and a happy and healhty little guy. I want to thank you again and say that I'm sorry you got such a hurtful email. I know that if it were me I would not be upset and that certain things are just not in your hands. Sending hugs:)

KatieLynne said...

I email Cheri a few weeks ago about getting her free prediction that she offers. In the email I mentioned about Ruby( I was waiting weeks for my "24 hour" reading. Ruby always had an excuse when she emailed me when I was upset)...
Cheri emailed me back so quickly and told me how to get my money back, she was an absolute DOLL!!!
I really could tell that she was a genuinely good person. So thank you again Cheri!
Anyone looking for a reading, Get it from Cheri!!!!!!

I think those of you who have your bfp or already have a kid forget what it was like to go through struggling to concieve. Not having and wanting can cause great emotional turmoil, especially if you are taking fertility meds. The raw emotion, the mood swings, the pain, and the anger is enoungh to drive a woman insane. I am not sure about the emailers situation, but I do understand her anger, although misdirected. I had a reading done by Brooke77, predicting that I would concieve Aug/Sept 2009. That date came and passed and yes I was angry! Not necessarily at her, but the universe, God, whomever for not being able to have a child of my own (I had been ttc for 2yrs). I had complete faith that it would happen. The prediction brought me joy and comfort, I had started planning my life around this prediction. When it did not come to pass I was devastated. I felt empty and hopeless. So, I empathy with the emailer. Is it right to direct her anger at Cheri? No it is not right. It is misplaced anger and I think that it is an occupational hazard for you. It is easier to yell and lash out at you oppose to yelling at God. As, for your emailer she probably feels bad for venting her anger upon you and with time she will find peace and hope again. I did. I had Brooke do another reading for me and she said Feb/Mar. You also did a reading for me and you said April. So, who knows when or if these predictions will come true. However, I am hopeful and that is really the service that you provide. If not a bfp this month or the next. I think that I will have it in Aug/Sept like Brooke predicted last year and the child will be born in April.

Thanks for giving many of us that struggle with infertility hope!
