Does being an antinatalist commit you to negative utilitarianism?

No; it seems perfectly reasonable to reach it from the standpoint of "can a life not yet in being consent to its own creation?" without being a utilitarian at all

Yep, hard to get around that. Consent and freedom go hand in hand.

I can't put my finger on it but there seems to be one more logical missteps here. If we assume that personhood starts at time t(0) and personhood is required for consent then at t(-1) it's incoherent to requite consent because there's no person.
