Have had her about a week and have completed one watering cycle and today, I noticed shes starting to look a bit floppy and droppy.  
She was on the dry side today so I have ensured a thorough watering just encase shes on the underwater side.  
There is no leaf yellowing but wondering if I should be keeping an eye out for anything else!

Synonyms love water. Maybe just try have a more regular water cycle.

Will do many thanks! She got a good watering today as its been 9 days so I'm hoping she perks back up by tomorrow!

Oooh 9 days is a bit long of a wait unless your humidity is really high. I normally water every five days (depending on soil and size). But I do know when it’s dry within first inch or two, it’s time water. Good luck!

All my syngoniums can be quite dramatic when it comes to watering. It may take a full 24 hours for it to perk back up. As the other posters suggested, you might increase your watering frequency or add some humidity.
