The reason in books why Leah can't have children is because when she became a shifter, she stopped aging and her menstrual cycles stopped. It IS possible that Leah may have children in the future. If Leah gets far enough away from vampires, the catalyst that caused her shifter gene to activate will cease to exist. Leah can stop shifting, and after a while she'll begin to age normally again...and she'll menstruate again. Rensemee will probably be able to have children once her body matures. Renesmee is different from full vampires in that she changes...her hair and fingernails grow. Since her body can accommodate changes, she should be able to eventually have children.
