Do you have friends that she can stay with for an afternoon to give you a break and some peace and quiet. maybe trade off with other moms. You take their kid for an afternoon, so they can get some peace. Even an afternoon in a bubble bath reading a trashy novel, or just doing something that you enjoy, for you... might help.
I'm not a parent, but I've seen it too often with friends who are... the parent part of them is always at the forefront (which is good) but they sometimes lose themselves and forget to take care of themselves... To be a good mom to your daughter, you have to love yourself too.
