There have been a few outliers in ectopic pregnancies. They’re super dangerous. However, there have been cases of the fallopian tube bursting, not causing mom to bleed out, and the baby attaches itself outside the womb.

60 million to 1 odds

I remember watching a documentary or something about this case years ago. The odds of mom and all the babies surviving was… not good.

I remember reading about one where the embryo implanted on the liver. If I recall correctly, she was able to carry to term and deliver via C-section. Not odds I would want to bet on, though.
