Hair independent: Independent of whether you get pregnant, "permanent" hair removal is not always permanent due to some follicles being in a dormant state at the time of treatment. So multiple sessions are commonly required.

No such thing!: No such thing as hair permanent hair removal! it is hair reduction! depending upon which laser is being used, the number of hairs, at best, is reduced 80%. Hair growth is cyclical. Hormones of pregnancy can increase hair growth.
