Slow growing embryos

Hi just wondering if anyone had any success after a cycle with slow growing embryos/poor quality embryos?
Our first cycle failed, on day 5 we had 2 early blasts which we transferred but BFN.

Our issue seems to be that embryos were growing very slowly, they sounded like poor quality - a 2BB and a 2CC but our consultant doesn't seem to think it was terrible.
We've been told age is most likely cause - I'm 39.
Sperm seems fine - we had 100% fertilisation, which I think they said meant my eggs weren't terrible either.

I'm starting taking NMN in prep for next cycle, and upping CoQ10 to 600mg, has anyone had anything that's helped them get better blastocysts?
We're not changing protocol as consultant thinks we basically got good eggs as they were all mature and all fertilised, it was just the embryo development that was poor.
