How can I overcome my people pleasing nature? I know it is disturbing me mentally and physically but unable to overcome it. Though I have a baby and pregnant again but I do prioritize doing all chores or prefer my in-laws over her. Despite of being an educated girl I am more becoming aggressive mother who just want to be according to others.

Absolutely, in the pursuit of pleasing people, you get exhausted. Boundary setting is very important. The whole of Emotional Intelligence is based on boundary settings. (Do your counselling/self-reflection.)
Let me tell you the right thing: establish a relationship with the Holy Quran; it gives you confidence regarding the realities of life. Also, repeatedly plan how much time you have to give to others. Aside from that time, you must leave the scope/concerns of others right there (outside). When you come inside your room to your children, you should have a system.
Discipline to accept boundaries and working gets easy. Discipline itself makes you confident.
