It's normal, especially if you store your car outside overnight. A thin layer of rust developes on the rotors, and for some reason, it's more noisy when backing up until the brakes wear that layer off.

I had the same problem...
I replaced the stock pads and no more squeak.

I have that problem. I also notice the brakes are a lot more touchy when they are cold from overnight. It's below -20 these days, so

Just back into your driveway/parking spot. In the morning, you pull straight out, no squeaking.

Yeah I definitely have this problem... it's sort of embarassing when the neighbor drives by in his vette. Good idea, Myszkewicz.

Well its almost summer and somewhat warm where I am in Australia and that happens to me even now. Its no biggy, although it only takes a few hours for the rust to form - it dissapears pretty quickly.

I'd recomend switching out the pads and using the brake quiet lube stuff. Most likely will work.
