My bra story

Since I've given this blog a lot of thought before I begun writing, I've also had quite some time to think about what to write about, and how I should make up the strategy for it. I really appreciate a logic order of things, a pedagogical feel and that its easy to follow this reading (I don't have the best confidence in using English thou, and just hope I can express myself good enough, perhaps it'll develop over time). Often, in the end, things I do tend to quite messy anyway thou.
I had the idea to write two different posts as a background before I started my bra-fitting posts (who I'll probably will to mostly in Swedish  as I've hinted earlier, not the same need for you others <- my preconceived idea). One post where I listed some common misunderstandings and stuff about bra-sizing, and one where I'd give my own story about how I've came to find the bra-sizes that fits me. When I begun write this list however, I realized that most of this misunderstandings I had had myself, and that I would just repeat myself If I made both posts. So, I'll try to write this together in some way, while hoping I don't make a way to long post about it. In this English-wrote post it'll be mostly my bra story.

First things first. I have never thought of myself as a busty girl, and I think I was almost 20 before I realized others thought I was, and that maybe that was the case. I have also never been completely fitted by a professional  but I've had some help on the road to know a well fitting bra.
I begun to by bras when I was thirteen or so, me and a friend decided it was time to get us a bra, and brought one each from H&M in 70A(32A).
A few months later, I knew I had to buy a bigger size, and I did actually understand that cups increase with bigger bands, so I got a 75A (34A). The bust grew and I settled at a 80B (36B).
Now i question myself back then, why I was so keen on going up in band-sizes instead of cup-sizes. But I guess I had the "big-letter fobia". I had read in magazines that A-cup is small, B-C "normal" and that D-E is big. This is basically the sizes available at ordinary stores, and I considered myself small/average.
In my later teens (17,18 something) a friend had seen on TV that many women wear a to large band size and a to small cup-size. I then tried 75C instead of 80B. It didn't take long before I constantly fell out of this H&M plunge bras. A little less letter-fobic now I tried 75D instead. That was awesome! The bra itself was also very comfortable, boring but comfortable.
All bras I find in 75D was boring, this of course bored me. But I noticed a store named Change, who had bigger cup-sizes, wish seemed to be more fun. I payed them a visit to buy a bikini. There I was told that I would probably fit better in a 75DD than a D, but also go down to a 70 band-width. I never tried a 70 band that day, think I had to get used to the mere thought since I knew the cup-size letter would be so big and scary.
After some time I came to my senses, and realized that 70E (32E) was actually very good fit on me. But it was hard to find anything nice that was still affordable. Nice bras was veeery expensive  and only available in "specialist stores".
So I went to the internet and found England!
With internet-shops like Figleaves, Bravissimo and Brastop, a lot to choose from and A LOT better prices, it was like heaven or something.
I had the same size for 2-3 years, but gradually changed to 30F, for a tighter band fit, depending on the brand. But a year or so ago my size begun changing, probably because I've learned about how to get all the tissue into the cup, and also birth control pills can have an influence.
Now I consider 30G to be my basis size, but in some brands I use a 32 brands, and some brands have small or big cups, so I don't think I need to get hung up what the bra-label says, but how it fits.
