Please search this forum there are many threads similar to your case.
You can apply for 10 years Long Residence before your current visa expired if no gaps but suggest do Subject Access Request ASAP

Please let your family apply for FLR(M)
Good luck

You may apply for ILR 28 days prior to the completion of your qualifying period.

If your wife is not eligible, then she may switch to FLR(M).

It's a pity that your wife didn't follow our earlier advice by using the correct FLR(M) form in the first place.

Fortunately, it seems that they have not yet refused her wrong application, but gave her the opportunity to vary it to FLR(M).

If your son was born in the UK, then he may skip the leave to remain application and register for British citizenship directly.
