by Dr. Kymberlee Lake. Most women know that there may be some bleeding after giving birth but often women are surprised by how much and how long and they arenât aware of the difference between postpartum bleeding and discharge and menstruation. The first bleeding after you give birth is called lochia.
You asked some pretty straightforward questions, let me do the same in my answers. 1- How long should we let the tile and thinset sit before grouting? If you are using basic 12 x 12 porcelain field tile and bagged thinset mortar, wait 8 to 12 hours before grouting.
Allow thinset to dry for 24 to 48 hours. Thinset mortar adheres tiles to floors, countertops, backspashes and walls. It shouldn't be walked on or disturbed during the drying process, as doing so could cause a serious misalignment of the tiles you just laid, a problem that would be difficult to fix. This means you need to allow it to dry before grouting.
