A. Yes it's ok as long as you keep it clean and sterilised. Now for inverted nipples you can try this method. Put ur thumbs on either sides of the nipple within the aerola. Give pressure gently, then pull away the thumbs from each other still pressing, then gently move the thumbs all around the nipple. Keep repeating this. This will help your nipples to protrude. Or u can pump from that side which will also help to protrude the nipples
