I just added your transaction to antpool it is supposed to be mined asap.
Please take a look two times when you will be sending bitcoins. Don't get greedy just for 1-2$

Thanks guys, I did use an online wallet service, and it dictates the fees (I can't really change it).
My first transaction (to another address) went through in a few minutes.
This one is still stuck for about 52 hours now.

I'm assuming you were using an online web wallet of some description? As you said you were sending to your daughter... but that transaction has 5 outputs! 
Anyway, if my assumption is correct, the online wallet service screwed all the recipients with a very low 70 satoshi/byte fee
The current recommended fees are anywhere from 220 to 390 sats/byte. You can check here:
https://bitcoinfees.21.co/
https://btc.com/stats/unconfirmed-tx
Note: recommended fees are continually flucuating, so it is usually better to pay slightly higher to avoid an big upswing and end up with a low fee.
You can try submitting to the ViaBTC TX Accelerator in like the first 30 seconds of a new hour and you might get lucky and nab one of the 100 free hourly slots... At almost all other times you'll just get "Submissions beyond limit"

Definitely no, you put 70 satoshi/byte clearly under the minimum nowadays which is 160-200 satoshi/byte. If you don't want your transaction to stay stucked forever as there is a high chance it does use the ViaBTC website which is used to accelerate transactions.

Hi,
I tried sending BTC to my daughter, and after more than 2 days, it is still unconfirmed.
Did I put enough fees, because I thought I followed the recommended fees.
If a miner can just help confirm/unstuck this, thanks so much.
