Newborn daytime sleep

We have a 4 week old son.
He fights sleep every day and is often spending 6 hours awake. Very difficult to put down so cannot get anything done. We have tried everything we can think of.
We can get him to sleep at night time fortunately wakes every 2-3 hours for a change and feed.
Please help

Sorry if you've already tried this but does contact napping, wearing in a sling or fresh air in the pram work?

I have a sling but he hates it.
I will persevere though as he gets older. He'll contact nap after a feed occasionally but keeping him asleep longer than 30 mins doesn't happen and have no chance of putting him down.
I take him out in the pram every day. Sometimes he just cries, others just lays there wide awake, and sometimes falls asleep however once again 30 mins and then awake, it's the same in the car
