Perhaps, but not a lot of children and their moms running about the Raith household either as per the whole series.. I can think of only one "child" ever mentioned and nothing of her mother.

It's not "perhaps". That's what the text says:
--- Quote ---He swallowed. “According to the family records, just over fifty percent either don’t survive the delivery or die shortly after.”

As to not a lot of moms, most of Raith's children were born a long time ago. They'd be dead of natural causes if they survived. As to Inari's mother, we simply don't know.

Did they? No one else seems to have had any children either.

Maybe. Maybe they died of disease. Maybe Raith ate them all up later. We just don't know. All we do know is about 50 percent of them survived having a baby vamp.

And we know WCVs have very low fertility, so I see no problem here.

Very likely. Raith wanted to indoctrinate and control his children in a very specific way. Mothers would only complicate things.
