1. Does he want a biological sibling to the point he will financially support him/her?
2. In the event of divorce, do you basically want to immediately get back on the market and find another partner/marry/try for another baby before you turn 40 or 45? Would you go alone with a sperm donor? How useful is an egg to you unless you want to be 50 with a newborn or you're gonna use a sperm donor?
3. Is there any chance of salvaging this marriage and/or any reason to believe a new marriage would be a blank slate, especially with the added strain of a child from another marriage and apparent infertility?

Create the embryos. Put off the divorce.

Ridiculous to divorce with an 18 month old. Give it a year and then rethink. What an insane thing to think is the right decision at this time. Sorry, OP, but if it's "amicable" then he's not hitting you and you don't have enough of a reason to divorce with a toddler.

Oh yeah because being a single parent of 2 under 3 is so easy.

don't do either until you sort out your divorce. you have a 18 month old. focus on your marriage and your kid.

Freeze eggs. Also know that the way you feel about your husband is common with young kids. It gets better.

Freeze eggs. Don't double down on a mistake, truly.

Definitely freeze eggs.

What is the reason and likelihood for divorce?

My husband and I are thinking about getting a divorce. We have an 18-month-old that we had through IVF. We had 3 embryos, and she was lucky number 3 that stuck. I know I definitely want more kids. My husband is on board with creating more embryos with my eggs and his sperm. He says he wants our child to have a full biological sibling. He's a great dad and our divorce would likely be amicable, but I know it would still complicate things. I'm thinking maybe I should just freeze my eggs instead? I'm 35, so I feel like time is running out. What would you do?
