Back when I applied for my DECCW, I carried around the house concealed with my pistol in IWB / EDC holster. If I had to go outside I just uncovered it (open carry legal) . The main thing is to get use to the weight and feel. When you do your first concealed carry "walk" you will possibly be thinking, do people know I'm armed, can they see a print, is someone going to scream gun and point at me in a store or public. The answer is no if you are doing it right and don't call attention to yourself. Remember (I know you've heard this) but, concealed means concealed.
