Hi
First file a domestic violence case and a dowry prohibition case against your husband, your sister in law and your mother in law.
you should file for maintenance for you and your child and should consider on next steps.
next steps include whether you want to live with your husband or seek divorce.

This is a very clear case of harassment under IPC section 498A which says ""Husband or relative of husband of a woman subjecting her to cruelty.—Whoever, being the husband or the relative of the husband of a woman, subjects such woman to cruelty shall be punished with imprisonment for a term which may extend to three years and shall also be liable to fine.
As well since the cause of the entire act being reviewed under The Dowry Probibition Act of 1961, which will protect you from all its means
At this stage since you are due for a delivery, I'd recommend if you would like to go through a counselling session with legal help which in most of such cases will bring down issues at home to normalcy
