Spongy Brakes

Iv been feeling my brakes becoming increasingly spongy, so I bleed them the other night. When the car was sitting and turned off after the bleeding, the brakes felt nice and firm, like they should. The second I turn the car on and push on the brake pedal they are spongey and the pedal goes down alot. Then i turn off the car and pump the pedal a few times and its firm again?! Any ideas of what is wrong with my brake system?

I do not know about that... How could you check or should I just bring it to the garage to have the car looked at?

What he is saying is that is normal and the pedal should go lower. If they are still spongy, then keep bleeding.
