Have you considered making a square-necked kirtle (ala Lady Burghley) and
then having it open/close down the center front (at least to the waist)
with either hooks and eyes or lacing? That way you could open it for
breast feeding and hook/lace it back together for wearing. If you made it
snug fitting, it would probably give you decent support too.
No personal experience in the area, just an idea.

Thanks Karen. I like the idea and will see if it will work for me. I
originally was thinking something high necked, but with the surcoat it
really doesn't have to be.
