First time monstera owener – regular + thai constellation, but they started drooping. I had them at the window Bove the radiator and moved them away now to this position thinking they might be getting too much dry air, but otherwise i water when 2-3cm dry out and the soil seems airy (water flows through very quickly)

I can’t tell from the photos whether they are potted in chunky potting mix, if not this could be the reason
I was unsuccessful with my first monstera (may she rest in peace 😭) but I learned so much from her & her daughter is thriving. Just sharing what helped me big time.
-Chunky soil mix
-Allow the soil to dry out completely btwn watering
-Clear plastic container (can help to figure out when to water)
-Grow light-my baby sat in the window, I thought she received great light but it wasn’t consistent enough for her (cloudy, rainy days will influence the light she gets). Having a good grow light changed the game.
-Tell her she’s beautiful at least once a week.
