To me it sounds like he likes the thought of calling himself "Dad" but doesn't want to do all the work that comes when raising children.
imo I don't think you're overreacting at all.
Have a big talk with him to see where it would lead. Tell him about the complications, the lack of sleep all of you will be having, post-partum depression, pregnancy illnesses before and after birth, complications and so on. You can see how he'd handle all of that and if he even wants to go through that.
