Answer
In the name of Allāh, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Assalāmu ῾alaykum wa Rahmatullāhi Wabarakātuh
If you are uncertain as to how many fasts you missed during your pregnancy then, make a safe estimation and add the estimated number of fasts to the existing six Qadaa fasts that you have. This will be the total number of Qadaa fasts you will have to keep. So for example if you decide that you have seven fasts remaining then add that seven Qadaa fasts to the six Qadaa fasts of the last Ramadan and that will be the total number of Qadaa fasts you will have to keep.
And Allāh Ta῾āla Knows Best
Wassalāmu ῾alaykum
