No: Trichomonas would not be tranitted to your daughter in this fashion. You have to have direct sexual contact to transmit this disease.

Don't worry: The normal routes of transmission for Trichomoniasis are penis to vagina, vagina to penis or vagina to vagina. It would be uncommon for the infection to affect anus or mouth. If won't be passed via bath water.
