Repotting could cause some stress. But, these are very hardy. Plus, it lives indoors with warm temperatures. It should do fine.

Don’t repot until she’s busting out of the pot. They don’t need room!

repotted her today! she was barely in the pot she came in, and when i put into new pot, she was like “ahhh” room! now she has a nice big room to grow for years!

I concur

If I may, i like to differentiate potting up and repotting as two different things : the first doesn’t induce much stress since you leave the soil and transfer it in a bigger pot, adding soil around it. The latter involves cleaning the soil out the roots and give them an entirely new home, which can cause distress. Also, I can’t tell which you did, but for further transplants, be careful not to give it too big of a pot : the new one shouldn’t be 2inches bigger, since some plants may drown in too much wet soil.
