Not sure what waiting is for. I just keep pressing the pedal slowly, watching the loop-back tubes. Doesn't normally take me 50 strokes, maybe 15 then a few more to insure no stray bubbles, but don't stop at a given count, just keep going until solid liquid.
Also, don't conclude "mushy pedal" after the first brake application. Drive the car around the block, braking repeatedly. If you changed pads and such, they need to seat and the caliper pistons need to find their home. With rear drum brakes (not my M-B), the pedal is really loose at first until you back up many times, jamming on the brakes to let the self-adjusters take up the slack.
