I have mixed feelings about this. I don't think any type of qualifying term should be used unless absolutely necessary such as in a legal or medical situation. The child should simply be referred to as a daughter. If you want to use some kind of distinguishing term with other parents who know about the child's background then "daughter (XY)" or "affirmed daughter" might be OK but in my opinion "daughter (name of child)" should be all that should be used. In no way should the child ever be referred to in their presence as anything but their "affirmed" sex. They will get more than enough of that from the not-so-nice outside world.
