Will we have a hard time finding a family who is interested in adopting from us? We're both educated and come from strong families.

You will not have a hard time finding a family interested in adopting. I would guess there are way more families out there than you would imagine who are very much wanting to adopt, especially a healthy infant.

We have been reading about open adoption and we're interested in learning more about that as well, however, we've only got about six weeks left of our pregnancy and we wonder if we've waited to long.

I would start now researching as much as possible about OA, what the laws in your state are, and what type of OA you want (i.e. how much contact you want to have, what level of openness, etc.)

I've considered picking up the Yellow Pages and calling an agency, but I wondered if that was the best option. Is it better to work with an agency that has a stronger web footprint? Do you have to work with an agency at all?

You don't have to use an agency. I did, and was very happy with my experience. You could contact several agencies and interview them and see how the fit is and what they offer.
