Mike it's not on you if someone changes the rules of engagement 5-6 year into something. Like if the entire relationship was agreed upon with a pretense of no kids, yes one or the other can change their mind that's fine, but it must be done in the form of collaborative discussions and clear recognition that something has changed and discussion about whether it's something the other person is open to changing as well... it cannot come in the form of an ultimatum. That's just not right.

A child will 100% change every single thing about anyone's life, but in your case from what I know of you on here from your posts, it will basically 180 most of what you do. You won't be working remotely, you'll rarely be independently travelling for probably 5+ years, you will be sharing finances, you will become a home owner rather than a renter probably, and if she's got a taste for the expensive shit right now baby mama world is absolutely chock full of things that get people with that mindset latched on to what's "best for their baby" organic everything this and that it's already crazy how much shit costs let alone what it costs when you want specialized or brand name everything.

Proceed with the utmost of caution my friend.
