Thank you for your answer. Very helpful

Shouldnt it be

<?php
  $sidebarPosts = new WP_Query();
  $sidebarPosts->query('posts_per_page=5&cat=3,7,12');
  while ($sidebarPosts->have_posts()) : $sidebarPosts->the_post(); ?>
 $post_id = $sidebarPosts->post->ID
 $random = get_post_meta($post_id, 'random', true);
 echo $random;
  endwhile;
?>

i will defintily try that and let know if it works 🙂
