Sadly, the childbirth-induced euphoria that Spears is experiencing may soon fade, as husband Kevin Federline finds himself more interested in finally perfecting the background version of the Roger Rabbit he's been working on for the past year than his newest son and recuperating wife. Why won't little Presty stop bellyachin'? she'll cry to her already-withdrawn life partner, and be answered with only the faint sound of C+C Music Factory drifting into the nursery from the background-dancing studio. That's when the dark feelings set in, the clouds of postpartum gloom that once gripped Brooke Shields, whom Britney knows to be much stronger than she is from repeated viewings of videotaped episodes of her favorite sitcom, Suddenly Susan; in this fleeting moment, when despair first starts to seep into the cracks of elation, that's when Tom Cruise strikes.
