" Busy Philipps has revealed that she doesn&amp;#039;t feel under pressure to shed her baby weight. The Cougar Town actress has a 4-year-old daughter, Birdie, and announced in December that she is expecting her second child.  However, she explained that she refuses to rush her weight loss after giving birth. &amp;quot;Like most things in this business, I think that you have to do what&amp;#039;s right for you and you can&amp;#039;t be too concerned about what some magazine is going to write about you,&amp;quot; she told The Huffington Post. &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;re in a business where a lot of people are blessed with pretty incredible bodies, that they work hard for or comes naturally, and not everybody has the same body.&amp;quot; Philipps continued: &amp;quot;I find it to be strange that people get obsessed about how fast actresses and celebrities are taking off their baby weight. I guess people like to look to them and feel better about themselves or feel worse about themselves.&amp;quot;  The 33-year-old suggested that moms &amp;quot;should be given a break, all across the board&amp;quot;, and said: &amp;quot;I think that the most important thing is that you&amp;#039;re healthy. After I had my little girl, I wanted to be healthy for her and have a healthy body image so that she hopefully grows up to see that her self-worth isn&amp;#039;t defined by how thin she is.&amp;quot; Philipps, who previously joked that her pregnancy meant she no longer had to diet for awards season, also revealed that Birdie is &amp;quot;very excited&amp;quot; about becoming a big sister. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s actually something that she has asked for, for quite some time,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;My husband and I were on the fence about whether or not we were going to add to our family, but now that we&amp;#039;re on our road, we&amp;#039;re really excited.&amp;quot; Philipps&amp;#039;s Cougar Town co-star Nicole Sullivan also recently spoke out about baby weight, suggesting that some celebrities lie about how easy it is to lose.
