    She looks a little underwatered. That soil looks hard. Idk if its just the picture but if you're planing on keeping her forever then i would change her soil into a well draining soil. If you want to keep her just until after Christmas then maybe water her alittle more.

    Also she could be adjusting to your environment so give her a week or 2 to adjust..

    it's just adjusting. nurseries and garden centers have conditions specially adjusted to suit plants, but that's not possible in a home. it'll be fine in a couple weeks, leave it alone and she'll recover
