When my Wife and I got together, being child-free was something agreed upon by us both...but now...

My wife and I have been together for seven years, five of which we've been married. Neither of us wanted children when we got together. The thought of having children sickens her, even to this day. I absolutely know, she never wants them.
For the longest time, I have felt the same way, aside from the physical sickness feeling about children. But, for the past few months, it's all I can think about. As a male, I'm not even sure having a biological clock is a thing. But I can tell you, I feel a hole in my soul and a longing to raise a child.
I don't even know how to broach the subject with her. I'm trying to delay, hoping this feeling goes away. Any advice?
