Gillian Anderson opened up about what it was like to return to work on The X-Files, just 10 days after undergoing a cesarean section during the birth of her daughter.

I think if I didnt feel so guilty that I got pregnant in the first season, that I might have taken better care of myself and been more thoughtful about what I needed for my best interest at the time, Anderson said during an appearance on the Today show Wednesday.

But I think I was so wrapped up in, I almost got fired, Ill mess this up, Ill do whatever they say, the actor added. You know, so yeah, 10 days after a C-section. But were still talking about it, right? Its interesting. Whatever it was, 30 years ago.

Anderson was 24 when she welcomed her first child, a daughter named Piper, with her husband at the time, Clyde Klotz. Anderson also has two children, Oscar and Felix, with another former partner, Mark Griffiths.
