Unlimited pregnancy & newborn care from an expert care team

Get 24/7 support before, during, or after pregnancy at no cost with eligible insurance

Our approach

Dedicated care teams

Unlimited access to a team of doctors, midwives, nurses, dietitians, therapists, lactation experts, and more. You’ll keep your in-person OB-GYN or midwife, but your Pomelo team is here for you between appointments (or whenever you need us!).

Customized care plans

We work with you to create a care plan designed just for you. Your care partner will support you every step of the way, whether it’s meeting with our dietitian, joining a virtual group with other expecting parents, or getting 1:1 support for gestational diabetes.

24/7 availability at $0 cost.

No more rushed appointments or waiting rooms. Meet and message with your care team anytime (including nights and weekends) via text, phone, or video. Pomelo is free to members of participating health plans.

Patient testimonials

5 star rating
"I’m not exaggerating when I say the Pomelo Care team got me through the hardest times of pregnancy, feeding my newborn, and postpartum in general. They educated me about what questions to ask my OB and to push back when something didn’t feel right - from questioning my iron levels during pregnancy to making an informed decision about an early induction that was suggested by my OB."
5 star rating
“There is not enough support for moms in the US, and the Pomelo group is helping fix that void. I wish every new mom, or even second or third time mom, would have a group like this supporting them virtually 24 hours a day.”
