Anyone use the on the go mm as their “diaper bag”? I have the neverfull gm but want to switch it up sometimes. I’m debating the on the go or a backpack. Would love to hear thoughts on either or. I have a 6 month old and 7 yr old
 
I have and love the Onthego MM and use it as an everyday bag. However, I probably would not use it as a diaper bag. It is too structured IMO and the long handles that sit in the bag are sometimes tricky to get out when the bag is too full. I also think the style is maybe too formal, even though I do often wear it with casual outfits. I would also be worried about sippy cups and other liquids spilling, since it is such a gorgeous bag and more pricey than the Neverfull. But if you don't mind the bag getting a lot of wear and tear then of course that wouldn't be an issue for you.
 
I have used my palms springs mm on and off for the past year and a half since baby#2 was born. Since I do drop off and suffer from back issues it's super helpful to have my stuff on my back and the straps are very comfortable.

That being said it is a tighter fit so I end up carrying overflow bags (like a cooler for food) but to be honest, it's easier on my shoulders having things separated and I can leave some items on the stroller.

I ended up re ordering this today! I had it when my 7 yr old was 3 but sold it as I didn’t need that much space. Figure a backpack and the neverfull are both good to have.
 
What about using the onthego gm in sunrise pastel? The colors are super baby-esque. Size wise would the gm be better?

Color transfer would be quite extensive in a short period if this bag is used as a diaper bag. The interior is also super light. Not the best idea. A GM black Empriente or Monogram Reverse would be better options…
