My mom did it at Christmas with me and my cousin. She said Santa wouldn't give us presents unless we left our pacy under the tree, haha! So lying for a reward is always good.

Gradually wean them off it. Don't automatically put the pacifier in their mouth when they fuss and try other ways to calm him down. It'd certainly be easier to break a very small baby of the habit than a toddler.

I would go with the cues of the infant. 2 months is very young and the baby may start to suck on his/her thumbs instead. You can't take those away and that habit is even harder to break because of it.
