Yes, every couple days is too much. Maybe once ever 3 months would be more realistic.
As long as the seals are in place, grit would not be getting in.
Too much grease causes a bearing to run hot, but not a real big deal unless it's a really high speed application, which yours is not. The thing you want to avoid is too much too fast and blow the seals out of the bearing housing. Once that happens grit will be getting in and no amount of grease will stop it.
As for wheel bearings, they hold a lot of grease, turn very slowly, and are generally not loaded anywhere near the bearing capacity. They have a fairly easy life as long as the seal stays intact and don't get contaminated with water or grit.
