I thought I'd say hi. Welcome to the boards!
Vomiting in any way - spontaneous or otherwise - is not typically considered an IBS symptom. IBS is a lower-digestive-tract issue, whereas that would be an upper-tract concern. As far as *what* actually causes that, I'm not sure, but believe it or not, my boyfriend and I were just talking about this the other day - no lie - because the same thing happens to his father! For him, it's not large meals or a glass of water afterwards, he can just bend over and up it comes. His doctors have no idea why he can do that, either, which is why I have no helpful suggestions for you, but I just wanted to say that I HAVE encountered someone with the same problem!
As for the constipation issue, the Acacia and the diet detailed here on the site, combined, will help. It's a lot of reading, but I totally recommend it - this site (not just the message boards) has been a complete lifesaver for me and so many others, and I think it can help you too.
Welcome again!
