Miserable baby

Ok guys I am at my end right now. Don’t get me wrong I love my child but I am really struggling right now.

My son is 5 weeks old and all he wants to do is eat all the time. If he isn’t eating he is crying. He won’t nap so I know he is overtired from that and I cannot get him to sleep no matter what I do. He will fall asleep on me for maybe 5 minutes then he is crying again. I’ve tried swaddling, white noise, his swing, his bouncer, on me, feeding him to sleep, a binky, you name it and nothing keeps him to sleep. He sleeps ok at night and by ok I mean he still wakes up every 1-2 hours wanting to maybe eat an ounce then he falls asleep again. Then it’s repeat that all night until the morning when he wakes up at 5 and then it’s screaming and fussing all day. I have a doctors appointment for him tomorrow thinking maybe he had acid reflux or something. I don’t know what to do anymore. I can’t even use the bathroom or take care of my 5 year old because all he does is cry. I needed to vent because I am seriously about to lose my damn mind here. 😭😭
