Kitten being sick

Hi, I'm looking for some help/advice.
I have a 6 month old kitten, Max who was just neutered last week.
Last night and today he has been being sick, 4 or 5 times. We haven't changed his food or given him milk, he just has water. He seems ok in himself, possibly quieter and less wanting to play than usual. Obviously if it continues I will take him to the vet, but just wondered if anyone had any advice first?
Thank you

Thanks for your reply, I guess it is a bit watery ... some bits like phlegm, if it is that he's trying to get rid of a hairball will the sickness just pass? He just looks a bit sad

Re: Kitten being sick

He's not really interested in food, though I'm pretty sure he has eaten today (I have another cat so can't be 100% sure). He's been drinking, but doesn't run to his bowl for more food like he usually does (he's usually pretty greedy!)
The 'other end' is completely normal.

Not really, he's only been out once by himself for about ten mins in the garden this week, and I was watching him.
