There has been a large number of transactions in the mempool for the last week+. the miners give higher priority to transactions with the highest fee/byte. This site shows the estimated wait time based on the fee:

If your transaction had a large number of inputs it could be over 1000 bytes and your fee might be very low as a result.
You can try using the viabtc accelerator here:

If your transaction is accepted they will include it with the next block they mine. I used it once last week and it worked for me.
