Hi - You might want to post on the Guatemalan Forum - you'll probably get more responses.
In Guatemala, the wait for a baby girl is longer. More boys are relinquished for adoption, and more adoptive parents request girls. Referrals are usually for newborns, although there are older children available for adoption - it's just not the norm. The average age for homecoming is 6-8 months, tho' some babies are as young as 3 months, and others, when there are problems in the process, over a year.
The most important thing you can do now is to research, research, research. The agency's expertise in Guatemalan adoptions and the commitment and reputation of the Guatemalan attorney are critically important.
Best wishes,
