Newborn sleep

My LO is 4 weeks old. He has just started being more alert and awake so have introduced some play time which is great. The problem is sleeping. I can only get him to sleep with cuddles. Then most of the time he wakes up after 30 mins of being put down. He will sleep longer if he stays cuddled on me. If he had good day time naps he is up every 3 hrs during the night but if he has more interrupted naps in the day he will sleep for 5ish hours at night but he will be grumpier in the day. I just don’t know what to do or what is normal. Should I let him cuddle sleep most of the day and have short sleeps at night or should I keep putting him down in the day for a longer night sleep but deal with the Grumpy faze inbetween? He is happy to sleep in he Moses basket at night it is just during the day he wakes every 30 mins. Any advise, help of experiences shared would be amazing!
