Pregnant and saddle sore!

Looking for some advice.
18 weeks pregnant, todays ride (50miles) I got seriously saddle sore by about 25 miles.
2 weeks ago did 45 with no issues. Saddle isn’t new, did a 70mile ride back in jan with no problems.
Any pregnant riders experienced this and have any advice?? Am considering padded pants under my padded shorts… but fear the chafing!!!
Thanks in advance.

I don't remember getting saddle sore. What is your position like? Have you changed it yet? By that point I remember having to raise my bars (basically just put a spacer under). I also rotated my bars toward me. I had to tweek my position on a regular basis as the bump grew. Hope you can fix it and manage to keep peddling!
