New 2u2 mom - help please!

I have a week old newborn and a 19m old. My 19m old has always been super clingy to me. He’s also thrown tantrums when I tell him no (but doesn’t when dad or anyone else tells him no) which escalate QUICK for him to screaming and hitting/throwing things. I obviously have to split my time more now and have to make sure he doesn’t hit baby or hurt baby. How do I handle the tantrums? I’ve started taking him up to his crib to chill out for a few minutes but this doesn’t seem feasible when he has multiple multiple tantrums. How can I get him to start accepting no or at least not getting so upset. I know he’s still so young but there has to be a better way to get him to calm down/realize things are okay? Any advice is appreciated.

I have an almost 17 month old soon and am 31 weeks with another boy. My 17 month old just seems MISERABLE 90% of the time. In the car - screaming. At home - screaming. Change diaper - screaming. Bedtime - laughing all night until we go in his room then SCREAMING. Why? How do i make this more bearable until he can communicate better? His daycare says he’s an ANGEL. With just his dad around? ANGEL. Why does it seem like he hates me 🫠
