I am so sorry, I have been where you are right now, and I know how difficult this is.  First thing is, if you don't want to have a D&C, you can hold off.  There is absolutely no panic at all, and it is very important that you feel absolutely certain in your heart.  Yes, it is possible that the scan was wrong and there is nothing wrong with getting a second opinion.  I did that the first time, and I am glad I did.  I will tell you that if the tech was right and there was no heartbeat, then that is a miscarriage. I do not mean to sound negative, but at 9 or 11 weeks a heartbeat should be there.  Sometimes that happens and our bodies are not showing any signs of it yet.  They call that a missed miscarriage.  I know how scared you are right now, and we will do our best here to support you.  I do hope the scan was wrong and all is well.  Can your partner or someone go with you tomorrow for support?  I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.  Take care, and good luck.
