Though I luckily fall into a not terribly hard to find cup size (30DDD US), one of my biggest pet peeves after having my eyes opened to the woes of being unable to find large cup sizes is all of the celebration and excitement and exclamation points that follow "available up to a G cup!" like that's a big freakin' ... deal. I mean, I applaud these brands for doing what others still are not by even going that far along the alphabet, but it's that exclamation point that bugs me. The implication of that exclamation point irks me to no end, like G cups are so huge and rare. Which they're not. Maybe it bugs me because for some brands, going up to a G cup is a big deal, and I feel like it really shouldn't be, because you shouldn't have to embark on a quest to find the right bra size, you should be able to go into most stores and find what you need. But I guess I'm just a dreamer.
From my own personal experience, my biggest bra problem that just makes me want to yell at people is that different brands and countries get all weird right at my size. DDD, E, F... what am I?! I'm right at the start of where things start getting funky. Sometimes a DDD is an E, sometimes it's an F. And sometimes, trying to figure all of this out makes me want to cry. I wish there were just one system...

Thankfully I don't have pms-issues with my boobs but based on all the stories I've heard you are not alone. If someone can grew as much as from a B-cup to a C-cup (like 35%-ish), it isn't strange the increase is greater with larger boobs from the start. Sadly that doesn't help when it freaks one out and no bra fit. :(
I'm a few bands smaller, but I feel sort of the same about my back. My back looks almost as if I don't have any extra fluff there at all and I swear I did have it a couple of years ago... Maybe it's the magic of of a correct fitting bra? That both allows breast tissue to migrate back and doesn't make it give that nice roll in the back...?
About your back: Is it still smaller without a bra or just with a bra on? Because that's what I really cannot grip.
I'm thinking migration also might be we just learn to tuck it all in the cups, but to make it actually stay on the boobs on their own... I don't really know what to think. For me it reduces my waist as well since I do have a really full back. I cannot tell if I'm smaller without a bra though. But I think so.
But as I've been wearing too small bras for 20 years I don't really expect a miracle. I just find it all so peculiar :)
