Bethenny Frankel Is A Calm, Cool & Collected Mom

As most moms know, the first months with a newborn baby can be tiring - and stressful! Reality star Bethenny Frankel, who welcomed her daughter Bryn in May, is no exception.

The Real Housewives of New York star shares her secrets for staying sane when her babe is unhappy.

“I have help,” Bethenny, 39, tells OK!. “I have my husband [Jason Hoppy], who is very helpful. And I think if you’re calm, they remain calm. They’re usually crying for a reason. They’re tired and they want burped, or they have a dirty diaper or they’re hungry. You’ve gotta be patient. It’s like anything else – this too shall pass. It can be a little frustrating, but the moment always passes and you have to take a deep breath.”

Having recently opened up about her own difficult childhood, Bethenny says that she wants to give her daughter a very different experience.

“I want Bryn to have what I didn’t have,” she says. “I want her to have a little more stability, more certainty. I want her to have more stability.”
