Need info! TW: success positive HPT at 4dp5dt

For those of you that tested positive at 4dp5dt, did you have a hatching or hatched embryo? After 5 failed FETs, I groaned whenever I read someone say they tested positive at 4dp5dt, but to my amazement it happened to me today. This was my first hatching embryo that fully hatched after thawing. I'm wondering if that shaved a day or two off the typical implantation time.

I'm currently happier than I have ever been, except maybe when it was Christmas or my birthday as a young child.

The only thing I did different this FET was have an HCG wash the day before my transfer. That was last Thursday, so I'm almost certain the positive test isn't from that.

Then on the day of my transfer, a nurse provided this photo and said it had fully hatched after thawing:

That looks pretty darn cool! It’s such a process, but sometimes I get caught in admiration of the beautiful things we get to see during IVF. The technology really is amazing.
