Contractions were 3 and 4 minutes apart for several hours so I made Brandi go to the hospital. Of course, after an hour and a half there was no progress and the contractions were barely even painful so they sent us home. About an hour after being home Brandi was having very painful contractions so we went right back. By the time we got settled back into the delivery room she was measuring a 6. 15 minutes later she started pushing. 1 minute later Neely was here. The Doctor hadn't even arrived yet but the nurses did a great job. Brandi was a solider as always. Strong and courteous to everyone during labor. Neely was 20" long and 8 lbs. 15.8 oz. Here's an early pic of the sweet one.
Here she is all bundled up.
Lots of visitors came including Paige and Cason. They both had very sweet reactions to Neely. Here's Paige holding her.
And here's Cason roaming around the room worrying/entertaining us.
Brandi, I love you and I'm amazed and proud of you. Again! Neely, we love you. You are incredible already. God, thank you for blessing us again. We love you. Stay tuned for more pics when Brandi comes home tomorrow.

YAY!!! I am the first to comment and Chris is so upset :) Congrats!! We love you guys!
We are so happy for you guys. Neely is so lucky to be born into such a loving family. We can't wait to meet her.
She is so cute and I love her chubby cheeks and I hate how I had to get sick right before her birth and now have to wait days to meet her. Not fair! Love you!
So sweet! I am very excited for you! Congratulations.
I've been checking multiple times a day waiting for the news! HUGE congrats! Brandi, you are an amazing woman and I love watching your family grow, even from a distance! Enjoy your sweet one!
Woo-hoo!! Paige & Caso's little sister is here!!!! You did good, Brandi, you did good. Neely's a beautiful little cherub and will undoubtedly be as fun and sweet as your two other babies. Congrats to the ever-expanding Jacobs' crew!! P.S. Next baby is gonna be a boy--Yup, that's right. I'm callin'it right now. I'm 1 for 1. =)
Yay for baby Neely. She is absolutely adorable. You guys make some cute babies. We are so happy for you.
So excited for you!!! I love her name, and love how sweet Paige looks holding her. Brandi, you are amazing. :)
I loved seeing little Neely today even if it was only for a minute! She's so adorable and Brandi you are a rockstar my friend!!!
Yay!! That is wonderful new Congrats..She is a big one:) Such wonderful timing:)
Hi Brandie! I have been following your blog for quite awhile...such a stalker, I know! ;) Your family is precious! I think it is so wonderful that you had all 3 of your babies without drugs! I have 3 babies, but only had 1 without an epidural. It was such a painful experience, so I can't imagine doing it 3 times!!! You are so inspiring!!! Congrats on your new little one! BTW, my name is Heidi Baitinger (Schoolmeester). I have known your dad and other family members (cousins, aunts) for a long time.
Thanks everybody. Haha Sarah, I like that Chris didn't even bother commenting once you beat him. :)
Thanks Heidi, I kind of remember you, and I Had your mom for 1st grade. I loved her. :) Don't worry, I stalk plenty of blogs. Ha. I did actually have a dose of demerol with Paige, which I hated and regretted after, so I did the next two with nothing. It sure wasn't easy, though, I don't blame people for wanting epidurals AT ALL. It's pretty intense, that whole labor thing. :)
