11+4 Couldnt find heartbeat please help :(

Ok so i went to the doctor today to get some blood test results back and a letter for the hospital next week.. Then she told me hop up on the bed and she would let me hear the heartbeat, i was soo excited wasnt expecting it.. She used a doppler for 15mins and couldnt find anything and now im really scared.. I burst out crying and she told me dont worry just wait for my scan next thursday.. Im so upset i just wanna know if my babys ok this is what i was scared of.. Is it normal to not hear a heartbeat at 11 weeks? :( :( I read they get one at 6 so why didnt mine show :( i feel i cant wait a week to know im so scared :'(

They couldn't find my baby's heartbeat when I was 13 weeks and I started to get worried but the doc took me in the ultrasound room and went in vaginally and found her. I have tilted uterus so she was too far back too find it with the Doppler. So don't worry. That could b the case.
