What comes to my mind is, has anyone checked both 
mother and child for poor nutrition?

eg, adequate vitamin E makes tissues such as 
ovaries sufficiently elastic to handle normal 
demands such as releasing ova, adequate B 
vitamins and calcium combat irritability, 
adequate protein and healthy fats make children 
(as well as adults) feel full and satisfied after 
eating, etc. Perhaps they could benefit from 
supplements and a healthier diet.
