"Baby #5 ....oh heavenly day," Emily captioned the video, which captured Emily repeating "oh my God" and "oh my gosh" once she learned she had just given birth to a baby girl.
Emily and Tyler's new baby was born weighing six pounds and 11 ounces, and Tyler can be heard saying the newborn looks just like Gatlin.
"Oh my gosh, that's so funny," Emily says in the video.
The video ended with Emily holding her daughter and posing for a family photo with her happy husband.
"It's a girl! Welcome to our world!" Tyler wrote in his own Instagram post, along with a video and interlocking-hearts emoji.
In Tyler's three-minute video, he documented Emily's trip to the hospital in the middle of the night and told his wife that she looked "so beautiful" in her hospital gown. Tyler then shared the same footage Emily had posted in her video.
Emily and Tyler also share sons Jennings Tyler, 5, Gibson Kyle, 4, and Gatlin Avery, who turns 3 in November. In addition, Emily is mom to a 15-year-old daughter Ricki from a previous relationship.
Ricki's father is her late fiance Ricky Hendrick, a race car driver who tragically died in a plane crash in 2004 just before Emily discovered she was pregnant with her first child at age 18.

Emily gave birth shortly after she announced she was expecting another baby with Tyler.

While Emily didn't clarify she was pregnant, supportive messages poured in from friends and family, including The Bachelor alums Michelle Money, Tenley Molzahn and Andi Dorfman.
"Congrats hunny!!!!!!" Michelle gushed.
"Of course with the guc socks. God I love you! Congrats mama!" Andi commented, referring to how Emily's socks were Gucci.
Emily married Tyler in June 2014. Before finding her happily-ever-after, Emily competed on Season 15 of The Bachelor, Brad Womack's second edition of the show, and later starred on Season 8 of The Bachelorette.
After rejecting both of his Final 2 bachelorettes on The Bachelor's eleventh edition, Brad fell head over heels for Emily on The Bachelor's fifteenth season when he got a second chance at finding the woman of his dreams on reality TV.
Brad proposed marriage in the March 2011 finale, but the couple split up just three months after the finale aired on ABC.

"Yeah it was," Emily noted. "It didn't last, but so long!"
"But I take a lot of the blame for that too. I mean, I was 24 and I'm 34 now. I didn't have the maturity to deal with all of that, and it was really hard."
Emily insisted she and Brad "both put in a lot of work" prior to announcing their split.
"You know, [we were] traveling back and forth and all of that," Emily explained. "But I think we both knew, like, 'This is just not fun anymore. This is just not going to work.'"
Emily got engaged three times before her final engagement to Tyler stuck and the couple got married. In addition to Ricky and Brad, she was also previously engaged to her The Bachelorette Season 8 winner Jef Holm.
Emily and Jef broke up in October 2012, a few months after her The Bachelorette season finale aired on ABC.
