i think it could a kind of genetic connective disorder called ehler danlos syndrome in your husband and son,but your daughter features are more suggestive of marfanoid type...invariably both can be evaluated and diagnosed by genetic workup and approriate management..So please meet the geneticist and community pediatrician who could alliase you with a multi disciplinary team ...Hope this helps
