I am just trying to find out what the normal practice is.

1♠ 2♣
2♥ 2NT/3NT

1♥ 2♣
2♥ 2NT/3NT

After a 2/1 do we play responder's 2NT and 3NT any differently if opener bids a new suit compared to after a rebid in the suit opened?

On the first auction, 1♠-2♣-2♥-2NT, I would bid 2NT on a fairly large number of unbalanced hands. The reason is that I want to protect my diamond stopper from the lead, and that there's no real incentive to introduce a four-card diamond suit (say I hold 1345 shape).

On the second auction, 1♥-2♣-2♥-2NT, I think 2NT is usually a real balanced hand, since I would definitely bid 2♠ with 4♠ here and might introduce diamonds with 3145 in some instances as well.
