For medical reasons I had to rapid wean my right breast, but I am still feeding my 7 month old from the left

The left has always been an undersupplier

She is taking well to solids and drinks water from multiple different containers but will not drink milk from anything other than the boob

I have tried several different formulas, goats milk formula and even my friends breastmilk to no avail. She has never accepted my milk from a bottle either.

The bottle isn't the issue as she will drink water from it. It seems to be the taste. I mixed breastmilk and also tried mixing vanilla.

What am I supposed to do here? It's been a week and she's been so fussy and not herself. She's not smiling or laughing like she used to, is very constipated and is waking up every hour through the night crying. I feel so guilty and useless

I had planned on breastfeeding for as long as she wanted. She's a huge comfort feeder, doesn't take a soother. I am so so gutted we've got to this stage

​

Been going on pretty much since she has been born, thinking maybe I need a new seat, or would she have motion sickness?

She doesn't cry any other time of the day, the only other time I heard her cry like this was getting vaccines

🔸️ Tried putting her in at the start of her wake window with toys, in the middle so she gets sleepy and right when she's due a nap

🔸️ Tried a cutout of my husbands face (I had one from my hen party lol)

🔸️ Tried the happy song, aniseed syrup, white noise, dodies, toys

🔸️ Tried blanket, no blanket, less clothes, more clothes

🔸️Fully winded and changed

🔸️ Lay flat car seat (Joie iLevel pro)

🔸️ Someone next to her, lessens the crying but it still happens

She plays independently at home so doesn't need to have eyes on me all the time

We have often gone for walks in the car seat and she's fine. Awake or asleep, it seems to be the car or when it's plugged into the car that triggers it

Please help, family live a drive away and I feel like I'm stuck in the house 😭😭😭
