It takes me 400 miles to break in a new saddle and I have yet to meet a saddle that my butt disagreed with.
Every single change, and always only 1 change at a time, should at least be tested for a couple hundred miles unless it's really bad early on.
The first few saddles were awful, but I'm making 10 mile rides with the latest one, and am reasonably comfortable. I think I just need time to toughen up and get used to riding.
