Expressive language delay & initial consonant deletion

DC (3) has expressive language delay and is unable to tell me anything about their day unless I guide the conversation and they’ll occasionally repeat/respond to what I’ve said. They’ve just started putting two words together & their speech can be unclear with some initial consonant deletion eg stick is ‘ick’
We are waiting for initial SALT assessment.
has anyone experience the same? Can you share your stories/ and what to expect?
Thanks
