That's not often enough.

Each new receive addresses that you generate reduces the number of transactions that are protected by the backup.

In addition it wouldn't be a bad idea to keep a few recent backups in case the most recent one is damaged or unusable.

I'd suggest backing up when the sum of receive addresses generated and transactions sent since the last backup is around 25.  Then keep the 3 most recent backups.
