No working out for Gillian Anderson who is expecting a child in October.

"The only thing I do when I'm pregnant is eat and sit on my butt!" the X-Files: I Want to Believe star, 39, told Usmagazine.com at the movie's Hollywood premiere Wednesday. The flick opens Friday.

Pregnancy cravings?

"I'm not really craving anything, but there's the lazy part of me that thinks, 'What's the point in working out until I have the baby?' Then we'll actually do something!" she said.

"I know that's not necessarily the right way to look at it," she added, "but that's just me."

Check out photos of stars' post-baby bods.

Anderson told Us besides having "a couple of films coming out later in the year that I'll do some promotion for," she plans on focusing her life on mommyhood.

She and beau Mark Griffiths are already parents to son Oscar, 20 months.

She also has a daughter Piper, 13, from a prior marriage.

    She is my favorite. Just saw her on milllionaire personals site """"m o d e l m i l l o n a i r e. co m"""""" last week. I am wondering what kind of relationship she is looking for on that site.Is she single again now? ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

    Good for her. Hollywood is putting too much pressure on celebrity moms to be thin. It's unhealthy for them to exhaust themselves with crazy exercise routines just because their publicist tells them they have to. THEY DON'T HAVE TO! They need to focus on having a healthy pregnancy, a healthy delivery, and a healthy child. Go SKully!
