I have had a similar background (not with miscarriages but with 2 ectopic pregnancies on one side after my other tube and ovary were removed b/c of a dermoid cyst.) And I KNOW it doesn't make any sense how I got pregnant with no tubes and no IVF. I went through IVF with my 3rd because I didn't even entertain the idea that it was possible to get pregnant without it. (My first and second were born naturally but it was after my 2nd was born that I lost my one tube and ovary, causing scar tissue which likely caused the first ectopic.) So, imagine my surprise to find out I was pregnant. My 3rd (the one I went through IVF with) is not even 2 years old yet. So, I know it's totally unbelievable and to make matters worse, the doctors really don't have a definite explanation as to "how". They have "theories", etc. that they read about. Either way, week 27 starts for me tomorrow and this baby is in the uterus and I've had no complications. Crazy? I know. Trust me, I'm not out there trying to say "hold on to hope b/c it's possible" because I don't even know physically how it is when I don't even have the viable "parts" to successfully get pregnant without intervention. I didn't even find this site until the day I found out I was pregnant and I wasn't able to get into a doctor until the next day and it was THEN that I started seeing if getting pregnant without tubes was possible. Because before then, it didn't even cross mind that it was even remotely possible.
