The witches promised Macbeth that Dunsinane Castle would never fall until the Forest of Birnam attacked it.

Malcolm's army uses brushwood from Birnam Forest as camouflage - so that part of the prophecy is fulfilled.

The witches also promise Macbeth that no man born of woman can kill him.

Macduff was born by Caesarian section, after the death of his mother - so technically he was not born of a woman, but of a corpse.

You just can't trust these witches - though they do tell him to beware of Macduff (that part was good advice).

What is Macbeth doing while lady Macbeth is talking in the beginning of act 2 scene 1?

In Act 2 Scene 1, Macbeth is onstage and Lady Macbeth is not. I think Macbeth in Act 1 Scene 5 is heading back to his castle called "Inverness" to talk to his wife (Lady Macbeth) about what happened with the witches and to come back from the war that just happened. Possibly you were thinking of Act 2 Scene 2 where she is talking and he is stabbing Duncan.
