Kubernetes readinessProbe configure to change pinging time

My setting for readinessProbe is following: 

readinessProbe:
            httpGet:
              path: /up
              port: *status-port
            initialDelaySeconds: 5
            periodSeconds: 5
            successThreshold: 1

I want to change the periodSeconds to a larger value once my pod is running ok. Is it possible to achieve this? Since during starting of the pod it makes sense to probe it once every 5 seconds, but once it is running fine, it would be more efficient use of resource to probe it once every say 30 seconds.
