AIBU to not buy my best friends children every birthday/Christmas?

Met one of my best friends a few years ago and been so close ever since, she had 3 children then and is now pregnant with a fourth( I didn’t know her when she had these children!) I don’t have children and I was wondering what’s the right way to approach this? I will obviously buy the new baby a gift but do I continue this? Is it unfair on the others? What would you expect? Thanks!

If you've known her a few years already do I assume you haven't been buying them Xmas/birthday presents up until now. Buy a new baby gift but continue not buying anything else.
