12 week old being sick - should I worry?

My DS2 is 12 weeks old. We are doing mixed feeding, he does bf several times a day but also has bottles (due to big weight loss in first week we had to do both then never managed to drop the bottles).

For the last 48 hours he's been sick quite a lot. In the hour or so after each feed (bf or bottle) he'll throw up several times, sometimes just milk, sometimes it's a it curdled, I guess if it's been in his system longer.

He isn't ill in any other way, his poos are normal, though he did do two massive ones this morning, and he doesn't have temp etc.he can be momentarily s little distressed and was crying a fair bit last night which he does occasionally but not often, but otherwise is his normal happy self, sleeping ok etc. He is feeding ok too.

I don't know if I should be concerned or not. I'm staying with my parents so could take him to their doctors if needed, but don't want to waste anyones time, but equally he is being significantly more sick than usual and it had now been going on for over 48 hours and he is only 12 weeks.

What would you do?

I would go to the doctor - it's not a waste of time, it's a significant change and you know your DS best. Better to get it. Checked out in my opinion
