I only breathe on one side. I've been practicing side breath, side breath, front breath, side breath, side breath, front breath, but I know that I may forget everything when I get in the water

I will picture all of you standing on shore cheering me on while I swim and repeating everything you've told me in my head. Breath in your armpit, look at the sky, stay calm, rotate, STAY CALM, breast stroke, side stroke, STAY CALM. Thanks everyone for all your help and encouragement!
