for me your preflop raise ruined your chance to take down a big pot here,your opponents are giving you credit for overcards and this spoils your str8 money making potential.suited connectors play best in pots that are unraised and someone flops top pair and you flop the nuts.
i know you're trying to build a pot here with your small raise,but in no limit you never need to with those cards,not many players online can handle a check and not bluff at the pot,and 2 checks,you are almost guaranteed to get a nice sized bluff out of someone in an unraised pot.many players strategy is to win small pots with pot sized bets,i like to check/call these bets until the river when i have the nuts,then push on the river,many ways to do it,but that's my early strategy play.
