We had good quality embryos and some were even hatching on day 5. But, I don't know why this one is slower than the rest. Is it a good sign some of the others reached hatching blastocyst? This is a chromosomally normal embryo and I am 30 years old (if that is any help).
I keep hoping there is a possibility this embryo will continue growing upon thaw. I think that there must be a chance since all of the chromosomes are there. Can you provide your expertise please? Thanks for your help!!
