You can't do anything about her attitude. Only she can and that will not happen. My one brother's wife is very much like that. I just have zero to do with her. She even raises heck if I talk to my brother on his cell phone. So I talk to him once each year at the Christmas get together. Not my loss it is his and her.

As for having children. I have been there. My wife and I had our first child just like it should have happened. We where even very young, 17 and eighteen. When we went to have the second child five years later then we had problems. One was me being in the service but we worked schedules so that should not have made any difference. Still no second child. We tried for the next 5-6 years still no children. I even was no longer in the service and still no luck. We finally decided that we where blessed with one child so that was all we would have. So we started to house foster children for the county. We had over 70 kids over the next fifteen years. Plus my wife started to have troubles with her period so the Doctor gave her low dose birth control pills to regulate her periods. Guss what??? She was pregnant in less than six months after that. Turn out that even the tests did not find she was too low on her hormones. So we proceeded to have four more kids of our own. She would take the low dose birth control pills and she would get pregnant.

I also know the stress trying to get pregnant can cause. The having to be home at a the right time to have fun with the wife soon took all the fun out of it. Then the crash and burn when she would have her next period. It made the whole house an emotional roller coaster. So when we decided to just quit trying and accidentally found her hormone problem we had kids.

So here is what I would do and you may already have done this. 1) Both of you get checked out by doctors that know this issue. Then get a second opinion on that. 2) The stress of trying and failing needs to be reduced or removed. I know this is very hard to do but it is what is needed. The stress could be the whole cause. Ideas of what to try. A) Have her start watching kids or start a day care business. Her being around other kids will helped her get a kid fix. Her attention will not be on her/your issue as much. If she already works then this could be just baby sitting around her work hours. B) If you two can handle it, then take in some foster kids. They really need good people to love them unconditionally. C) Adopt if you are comfortable with that and want the permanency of that. The foster kid thing can have low moments when they leave. You don't have that if you adopt.

So good luck to you. Put the comments that your SIL says in relation with all the other thing in your world. They will lose there importance then.
