Sibling presents

My ex is a nasty abusive person. I won't go into all the details here but I'm a total wreck, court orders and protective orders etc.

However, we had secured himself the standard EOW access to the dc.

It's DS birthday in a couple weeks time and DD came home from last contact saying how he has promised to get her a present aswell.

Obviously I haven't said anything but he does this, he buys them both presents every birthday. It's never been an issue before but now DD is saying to me why don't I do this?
It isn't fair that I give DS presents and not her.
Explained that ds didn't get any gifts on her birthday but of course she's just full of 'daddy does it' 'daddy must love me more then' 'daddy only wants me to be happy, you dont'

She's 6. I'm struggling enough as it is. And now this.

They get stuff from him EOW anyway, he buys them stuff constantly.

Don't really know what my AIBU is exactly.
AIBU to not give dd a present on DS's birthday and vice versa?
AIBU to be annoyed that he is?
AIBU to just be so fucking low that after 3 months of being back in their lives he has bought her affection and turned her against me?
