It doesn't want water until the roots are 3-4 inches (and the leaves have started to spread out so there isn't a "pocket" to collect water) Repotting is best done before that happens, though...before the new roots get going. So it could be repotted now, then set it aside and ignore it until those new roots are well established and the new growth is leafed out. (Since one can't see how long the roots are unless it's in a clear pot and maybe not even then, I am guided by the leaves, and also look for the second flush of roots to get going... by that time the first batch will be well on its way. (The second batch of roots is typically a month or 6 weeks after the first)
