What I do know is that this procedure is very painful to your kittens.

Your kittens if declawed won't be able to scratch - but they will use their next best defense and that is BITING!

A good scratching post and some TRAINING (just like you would do with a small child) makes a world of difference.

I wish you good luck and hope that you will not have them declawed!
I agree a 100% with Gini! I would never have a cat declawed - even if it was legal here!

This subject has been discussed here before, one thread you can have a look at is this. - and there are others.
