I didn't stop to understand your problem fully, but if you need the set
of calendar days in one month, you can use the generate_series()
function around some arithmetic that gives you the start of the month
plus when it ends, something like this:

with onedate(theday) as (values (date '2023-02-03'))
select g::date
from onedate,
     generate_series(date_trunc('month', onedate.theday),
        date_trunc('month', onedate.theday) + interval '1 month' - interval '1 day',
        '1 day') g ;
