Brief Answer:
no you should not

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for the query.
I think you want to ask that "should I take milk from the nipple of baby boy"?

Answer is No.
Many times it happens due to effect of the maternal hormones in the womb, that milk comes from nipple of a baby.
You should not take it out.
It will be cured on its own.

On the other hand you can express breast milk (mother's milk) and keep it for 4 to 5 hours in fridge if you are working women.
You can give it by wati spoon or bottle.


Hope i helped you.
