What am I doing wrong?

Morning all.

DS is 11 weeks and BF bar 1 bottle of formula before bed. The last couple of days he's vomited alot of milk up after every BF. He's always possetted ater a feed - BF or FF - but now it's alot more, and only after a BF Sad. Sometimes it's half digested, sometimes it's what he's just drunk. It looks like it could be at least an ounce every time - it soaks through a mussy instantly and I have to change clothes! - whereas before it was just a spoonful or so.

I haven't changed anything in my diet, I drink alot of water (at least 2l a day) and I'm worried about dehydration as his fontanelle is sometimes a bit sunken until I feed him - then he throws it all back up again :( he's weeing and pooing as normal (a couple of watery/slimy poo's but nothing continuous) but is this vomiting normal or something I need to be contacting my HV about?

BF is meant to be so good for your baby, but I feel like I'm just making him poorly all the time :(

Also meant to add, since the vomiting started he's been whimpering/arching his back during feeds. Not every feed, but probably every other :(
