pepper plant help please

[buggalugs]

Hi everyone could you please help me, novice gardener here.
I have a lovely pepper plant on my kitchen windowsill which is doing great, about 11 peppers on it so far. However the last few days the leaves seem to be drooping all the time. Watered and fed so what am I doing wrong  ??? please help me, I don't want to lose the peppers now

Thanks Chriscross, will I be ok to do that with the peppers already growing? It won't make them fall will it? Told you I was a novice sorry

One common problem is over watering esp if they are sat in a saucer and the soil becomes waterlogged.  Chillis/peppers like a free draining soil and I can garantee when I first started growing I over watered everything in a pot.  AS long as the leaves arent yellowing or actually falling off I wouldn't be too concerned - they are quite tough plants as long as they dont get too cold.

Ooooh over watering could definitely be the problem then!!! Thank you so much!!! I'll pop it somewhere warm and lay off the water til it drys out a little lol, Thanks again for your help
