The problem is that you are not guaranteed entry nor are you guaranteed to be able to be admitted for 6 more months . . . 

 

Hypothetical POE:

IO - purpose of your trip?

Fr0210 - to see my wife give birth.

IO - Congratulations.  WHen is she due?

Fr0210 - next week.

IO - I see you were here for 6  months and just left (he realizes you are living here and not a tourist).  I will allow you entry for 3 weeks and you need to get the correct  Visa.

 

They could also deny you entry.   Being gone for two weeks after being here for 28 weeks isn't enough to reset the clock.   You should be out of the US for a period longer than the time you were in the US.   Also note that going to Mexico, Canada or the Carribean does not reset the clock at all.

 

Thanks for your help, hopefully I find a good solution to that

Seems a classic case to apply to extend your existing stay.

The problem is, extending your stay takes approximately more time to process than I can stay in US and more time than AOS, which is a bit ridiculous for me sadly

That is the whole point, you will have gone back for your interview before they get around to looking at it.

Given what you have said I am just telling you what I would in those circumstances.

will my tourist visa duration of stay reboot to 6 month again ? 

There is no "reboot."  Each request for entry at POE is evaluated separately.
