"Baby's" is correct. It's "it's" that is wrong. The word "its" is a rare case of there being no apostrophe needed to show possession. #3 – you got the usage backwards in your attempt to ridicule someone else. “Baby’s” is correct.

I will admit to being a font nerd, I collect fonts by the hundreds. Comic sans is like something you find in the discount bin at the dollar store. It's the one font dismally used by every company to put on a crappy CD hoping someone will by it. Worse it comes free with Windows. It's a boring plain font with no serifs(feet) and for this use, not festive. There's so many other beautiful wonderful choices of fonts that COULD have been used, but no. meh why is comic sans terrible?

"Baby's on the way," would be so much more musical. And the font could be a lot more jingly.

Although I personally loathe "Curlz" - especially when a business prints their sign using it - shudders... But really - why is Comic Sans so annoying? To all the Comic Sans haters – NERD ALERT!

Iron on is grade school level "crafting" at best. As for the stupid people breeding...it is more that the people that are breeding masses of kids are usually stupid. Most high IQ and highly paid people have 1 to 2 kids. I believe that baby’s= baby is, which is an acceptable conjunction, but the “it’s” thing is all wrong.However, the shirt is abysmal in design.
