Brakes are boosted when the engine is running.
You don't need to pump them, or press really hard when you're starting.
i always depress the brake pedal before starting the car because it is an automatic. lately i've noticed that its hard to depress, its not like this before.
OK so you're saying the pedal is stiffer than normal.
I would have all the brakes checked for wear. It might just be time for service.
