Invitational. I could have bid 2H after all, so this is not a good/bad situation.

you have to weigh the call in view of other possible calls like 2♥, 3♦,and 4♥

We would treat 3H has natural and invitational. A cuebid would be western (or a very strong hand). 3S and 4D would be splinters in support of hearts.
