My friend just read with her and I'm listening to the recording now. She isn't slow at all in this reading and she connected immediately. She picked up February as a big month for her and POI, as did Kisha.
Re: pregnancy, ditto El Caliente. I wouldn't worry about them saying that to everybody, they def don't. Michelle and Josh told my friend that a few months ago and since she was obviously not connected, friend never used them (her?) again.
