Vitamin C is water soluble, so most excess washes out of your system. If you get a LOT of excess vitamin C you can get your body's OH out of whack and you could get a yeast infection or something like that. I would avoid taking more than 3 or 4 times the RDA.

You'll need at least 85 mg of vitamin C daily during pregnancy — about what you'd expect to get if you drink a small glass of orange juice. That goes up to 120 mg when you're breastfeeding. But if in doubt talk to your GP

Now everyone can cure infertility using this natural remedy http://pregnancyhelps.info
infertility can run in the family and one of the first things the doctor asks you when you go to a fertility clinic is your family history regarding cases of infertility or other reproductive issues.
If infertility is caused by genetic disorder then it's not unusual that one of the kids (your mom) doesn't have it and another does (your aunt).
two months of trying is still to early to be concerned about the fact that you might be infertile and it's also quite early to go to a fertility specialist. Go to a regular Obgyb to get a closer insight and see what ways there are are to improve your fertility rate.
Also remove alcohol, caffeine and cigarettes from your life because they might influence your chances too. Stress is also a risk factor when it comes to infertility.

Check with your doctor. If you're not already on a Prenatal vitamin, you may benefit from starting one.

I think it would be ok, but a better option is drinking alot of orange juice. OJ is high in vit.C and folic-acid, which is very good for baby.

vitamin c is fine. you have to constantly take it though, because everytime you pee it is washed out of your system, it is recommended that you take it 3 times daily.

You really should get checked out. You could have anemia. Too much iron can constipate you.
