Baby keep crying for hours non stop

Yesterday was the first day we brought baby home , day 4 of baby, and it was the worse. From evening until morning, baby cannot stop crying no matter what we do, we carry him, we fed him, changed diaper, put baby oil on stomach, swaddled, given pacifier, nothing works. His eyes are just wide open and keep crying bloody murder. Is this normal for newborn to be like this and what do we do ? As we are first time parents we are very helpless and clueless. 😔 Really very stress and i feel useless as a mother that i cant do anything. Esp now im still recovering from e-csect.

Yes it is normal. First week in and I was very depressed and helpless even though I’ve my mom to help. It will only get better from week 3-4 onwards. Have you tried burping ur baby? Could just be gas in the stomach. How much is your baby drinking? Could be baby wants more milk?
