Most people see that as about the earliest to start
There is over three years between ours - but that is because we had some problems.
No, it won't be hellish because you can communicate with a two year old and they don't need *quite* as much attention. Two/three is a great age for a child to get a sibling. It's beyond cute, obviously.
But frankly, there would have to be an eight year gap for it not to be aggravating.
