Should be fine: Either umbilical (belly button) or inguinal (groin) hernia repair should be ok during pregnancy. Non-mesh repairs will have a higher failure rate than mesh repairs. Your case is unclear because shouldice repar is for inguinal, not umbilical hernia. In any case, don't worry about it because it is likely to be ok, and you can't do anything about it anyway. Good luck with the pregnancy.
