Matt Damon was clueless as how to keep his newborn baby quiet and then came bestfriend Ben Affleck with his baby 'weapon'.
Matt Damon's best friend
Ben Affleck taught him how to stop his baby crying. Matt, who has a 13-month-old daughter Isabella with his wife Luciana, was struggling to comfort his newborn until Ben revealed his secret weapon in keeping his own daughter quiet.
He said: "Ben hasn't really given me any advice about having a baby. But he gave us a plaything. He marched into our house one day and plopped it down and said, 'This works'. And then he turned around and walked out. It's a thing you can sit the baby in and it surrounds them with little activities. It's a good place to put her down if you need five minutes to change or something like that."
Ben has a 21-month-old daughter, Violet, with his actress wife
Jennifer Garner. Both actors admit fatherhood has changed their lives for the better. Ben recently said: "I thank the Lord for my wife and child every day. My family is the most important thing, the centre of my life."
Matt exclaimed: "Everybody said before she was born, 'It's going to change your life.' But the reality is, the moment a baby enters your world, every other single thing in life drops down a peg. It's all less important."
