head gasket question

After replacing the head gasket, I need to change the oil (coolant in
the oil).  Should I change it cold?  Or is it OK to warm up the engine
(and the oil) to change it?  I'm concerned that the engine may not get
enough lubrication if I warm it up with the coolant still in the old
oil.  If I do change it cold, should I change it again, after warming it
up, to be sure I remove all traces of coolant?  Or is that not
necessary?

TIA

Don't assume that because you have found one problem, you have found the
ONLY problem.
