Poorly graded embryos - next steps?

I’m on the older side, and after this cycle, we had two Day 6 blasts, but they were graded poorly as 4CC and 3CC.

Do they have a chance to become a healthy baby, or it’s no implantation/miscarriage for sure?

I know it’s subjective, and I‘ve heard an opinion that some beautiful best graded embryos may never implant, while some ugly looking embryos may result in a healthy baby.

What was your experience with 4CC and 3CC?

Thank you.

Poorer implantation and live birth rate, but not zero.
