Personally, I really wouldn't use what the Deadra said as evidence. Remember: They enjoy seeing mortals confused or in pain. For all we know, they wanted us to start a debate so it would take us longer to find out the truth. Also, thinking about it, perhaps they did not breed at first but Once Akatosh created the Dragonborn, they needed a way to keep their numbers up since the Dragonborn makes a dragon dead permanatly. Also, the dragons being able to breed would explain why you still get dragon encounters after Alduin in slain, since he is the only known dragon able to resurrect dead Dragons.

Also, Dovahhe translates into Dragons while Dov Translates into Dragonkind.
