Josiah,

Congratulations!

Now, work on sleeping on your side for the next couple of weeks, or
so. After that you'll be fine. This may, at first, seem impossible,
but you can find a comfortable position. Something in the back of
your head will keep you there during the night. Incidentally, I found
that just light touching against the bedding was no problem, only full
pressure.

Also, be aware that healing of the two piercings is independent.
Don't be surprised if one takes much longer than the other.
