nginx to reverse proxy 2 local lambdas in docker containers

I have 2 lambda functions wrapped in docker containers and am using docker compose to run them together. One runs on port 9000 the other on port 9001. I am trying to use nginx to allow them to both be reachable on the same port locally. I am able to hit each lambda individually at their respective port in postman at

localhost:9000/2015-03-31/functions/function/invocations

but not at the nginx mapped port.

Here is my default.conf

server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  localhost;

    location /user-api/ {
        proxy_pass   http://127.0.0.1:9000/2015-03-31/functions/function/invocations;
    }

    location /cart-api/ {
        proxy_pass   http://127.0.0.1:9001/2015-03-31/functions/function/invocations;
    }

}

Here is my docker-compose.yml

version: "3.7"

services:
  user-api:
    build: ./app/lambdas/user-api
    ports:
      - 9000:8080
    env_file:
      - .env
  cart-api:
    build: ./app/lambdas/cart-api
    ports:
      - 9001:8080
    env_file:
      - .env
  nginx-proxy:
        depends_on:
            - user-api
            - cart-api
        image: nginx:alpine
        volumes: 
            - $PWD/default.conf:/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
        networks:
            my-network-name:
                aliases:
                    - api-g-way
        ports:
            - 1234:80
  
networks:
    my-network-name:

Here is the terminal output when I try to access either one

It seems to be hitting the correct upstream address but I am getting connection refused. Bear in mind this is my first time using nginx. Any help would be appreciated!
