And the ultrasound tech said you were 6 weeks 3 days "pregnant"? or were the two of you specifically talking about "since conception," using the exact word conception?  This matters, because all medical counts of pregnancy (the number like 6 weeks 3 days) begin on the first day of the last period you had before getting pregnant.  If a doctor says to a woman, "Congratulations, you are 8 weeks pregnant!" he means 8 weeks since her last period began, or about 6 weeks since conception.  The count is done this way because the period is a big, obvious signal, not because the doctor thinks you are pregnant when you are on day 1 of your cycle.  That's why pregnancy, which takes 38 weeks, is counted as being 40 weeks long.  They add a spare two weeks at the front to count back to the presumed first day of the last period.

If the ultrasound tech just said "You're at 6 weeks 3 days," without any further elaboration, he or she would have been counting the medical way.  That would suggest you conceived around August 1 - 3.  This is way too early for your ex (unless you had sex with him earlier than August 17) because eggs, unlike sperm, don't last very long once they are out in your reproductive tract.  The long life of a guy's sperm in the woman's system puts the sex with your boyfriend on the 27 of July into the spot of getting you pregnant.  (This would be especially true if the baby is a girl.)  If you didn't have any other sex between July 27 and August 4, July 27 would be the time.

How did you get the date of 6 weeks pregnant on September 3?  Was it from an ultrasound?  And was it 6 weeks 0 days, or 6 weeks and some number of days?

From the count of 6 weeks pregnant as of September 3, depending on how reliable the method you used to get that number, your ex on the 17th of August was too late to be the dad.  You said you and your boyfriend broke up at the end of July; could you have had sex on July 31?
