1N is superficially attractive but it's an underbid. Worse, if partner has ♥Ax or ♥Kxx and we belong in no-trump, that contract is probably better played by partner.

Just bid your hand: 2♥. If pard has the 12-14 NT he'll bid 2/3NT, and if he's unbalanced with 5+ diamonds our support is more than adequate.
Look at the mess you caused by bidding 1NT

2h for me would show a much better hand, not this junk. I mean pard can often open 1d on less than 12 and I dont assume she will have 14 or more.
what happens over 2d pls?

I'd double 2♠, without much conviction. Partner knows I have only three, so he won't leave it in with a singleton. I hope he leads a trump.
