"Bethenny Frankel is typically an open book about her life, but kept the details of a recent miscarriage to herself -- until now.\r\nThe 41-year-old found out she was expecting her second child with husband Jason Hoppy, but received sad news shortly into her pregnancy.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;Because my first pregnancy had been complicated, and because I was over 40, the doctor told me that I was &amp;quot;high risk&amp;quot; and needed to take it easy. So I took it so easy. I had to,&amp;quot; she explains in Glamour magazine&amp;apos;s July issue, on newsstands today. &amp;quot;I was still bleeding, and I was nauseated and uncomfortable&amp;#x2014;&amp;apos;way worse than last time,&amp;apos; I said to Jason. I felt seven months pregnant even though I was six weeks along. And because we hadn&amp;#x2019;t planned this, I felt unprepared, like we had so much to do to get ready for this baby. Still, I was excited, if cautiously so, with the words high risk ringing in my ears.&amp;quot;\r\nUnfortunately, Frankel suffered a miscarriage. Her doctor told her, &amp;quot; &amp;apos;You&amp;apos;re 41. You had bleeding. There&amp;apos;s nothing you could have done.&amp;apos; And I hadn&amp;apos;t done anything,&amp;quot; she says. &amp;quot;Since I&amp;apos;d found out, I&amp;apos;d been lying down for an hour or two every day and lettings others take up the slack. But I blamed myself&amp;#x2014;of course I did.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nAnd 10 days later, the Bravo star got a call from her doctor revealing she would have had a baby girl. &amp;quot;He told me that the tests came back as &amp;apos;female fetus, normal.&amp;apos; He was reading off a chart, reassuring me that there wasn&amp;apos;t some chromosomal abnormality. But all I heard was &amp;apos;female,&amp;apos; and I fell to pieces.&amp;quot;\r\nThe Bravo star and new host of her own talk show is already the proud mother of daughter Bryn, 2, with her husband. &amp;quot;I was picturing Bryn with a little sister,&amp;quot; she recalls. &amp;quot;Two little girls in rain boots.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;Afterward, I went through a range of emotions. There was something so sad about it&amp;#x2014;that there had been a life there, and then suddenly it was not there,&amp;quot; Frankel explains. &amp;quot;There was also, I have to admit, a bit of relief that I wouldn&amp;apos;t be starting my new TV job seven months pregnant. And then there was immense guilt at the relief.&amp;quot;\r\nAs for whether or not she&amp;apos;ll try to have a second child again, Frankel says  it&amp;apos;s not really up to her to decide.\r\n&amp;quot;I&amp;apos;m healthy and could try again. But I don&amp;apos;t want to be a &amp;apos;trying&amp;apos; person. If it&amp;apos;s meant to be, it will happen.&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
