I wouldn't go back and review the entirety of your canon every time you feel a little shaky, because when you first start out, you're going to feel shaky a lot. Pretty much everyone does, and there's a bit of initial shakiness every time you pick up a new character. Instead, try picking a few snippets of canon (a five minute scene, or a few pages) that really emphasize your character's core traits, or showcase how they react to certain moods, and use those when you're feeling a bit wobbly.

One thing that's really important to keep in mind is that it is okay to go for the second or third most IC reaction. You don't have to hit exactly what your character would do in canon every time, especially if it would disrupt your plans or shut scenes down cold. You shouldn't go wildly out of character, but you should be a little bit flexible.
