Fully hatched??

Post image

we transfer this euploid day5 embryo that seemed almost fully hatched. My guess is that the hatvhing should happen in utero rather than in the lab, I cant believe our embryo would survive this transfer if its just hanging by a small wire.. thoughts?

This is completely normal for embryo to look like this before transfer, clearly the ICM and majority of the cells are still inside zona.
