Nooo, picture of the bike
I found that the bum pain got better over about a week, padded shorts really helped. I used to wear them under regular shorts as I was not confident at wearing lycra out in the wild (even though we lived in the middle of the Highlands and saw only sheep and deer most days).
Just keep on riding and your bum and sit bones will acclimatise reasonably quickly. Getting the right saddle is a big thing. Your bike shop might have an assometer for getting you the right width of saddle.
