What is the best way to approach this situation?
I’ve been waiting for a long time and searching for the right moment to tell my husband that our daughter is not his. I’ll also have to tell my daughter that she has a different father.

From a practical standpoint, this should be disclosed in order for her to be able to provide an accurate family medical history if you know the father. That’s the purely practical view.
The emotional standpoint is the tricky part. If you aren’t in counseling, I’d suggest you go get some counseling and use those sessions to work with a therapist to find the best way forward for all of you. It’s going to be painful, but the only way through it is actually through it. There’s no skating around something like this.
