Does he still not see a future with me?

My boyfriend 27M and I 26F have been exclusive for a year and been officially dating for 10 months now. Couple of weeks ago we were talking on the phone about how cute babies are and such. I told him what our cultures does to their babies. Like for example. A baby that has hiccups. The parent will grab a short thread or a tiny piece of paper, put in their mouth to wet it, roll it in a ball (if it’s a thread) and stick it to the baby’s forehead to stop the baby from having hiccups. Another one is how mom’s draw eyebrows (makeup) on new born baby’s because they believe the hair will grow exactly where they drew them. We were laughing at the idea of a new born bald baby with the sharpest looking eyebrows and a ball of thread stuck to it’s forehead. He then said while laughing “but you know some women in our culture draws eyebrows on their baby too, and it’s just the weirdest and hilarious looking thing in my opinion. Sarah, please don’t do this to m…..” he stopped himself from talking and continued saying “please don’t do that to your kids one day.” and I said jokingly “I think I will, and my husband won’t have a say so.” He was just smiling after I said that and we both went silent for a while. After our phone call ended I started thinking that maybe he doesn’t see a future with me I wanted to ask him but I’m scared. Is it too early for me to think this way? Or am I wasting my time? I love this guy deeply and I don’t know how to even bring up the conversation again about where’s the relationship is headed because he’s just also starting out his career. I don’t want to make him feel that I’m pressuring him as I have a lot of things I need to accomplish myself but I want to know what he thinks about our relationship. The last time I asked him he said it was nice and he likes where the relationship is going and I don't know what to feel about that answer. I want to ask him again but I don’t know how.
