My tummy is so firm... will it ever be soft again?

From my belly button up to my boobs,(pretty much the whole incision line)it seems very hard and firm. More so than before my open RNY 5 months ago. I do have two hernias and a lot of scarring from previous surgerys. Mostly it seems very hard when I'm standing... not as bad when I'm reclining or laying down. I have lost 90 lbs. and have at least 100 more to go. My question is this: has anyone had this happen to and then finaly the tummy softened up? If so.. how long did it take? This really bugs me and if my belly would just go down more I could wear a size smaller. Seems like I'm losing everywhere but my tummy! Well, I have lost some there but not as much as everwhere else. The simple fact that it is so firm makes me feel as if I haven't lost nearly as much as I really have! From my belly button down it feels great. Nice and soft. Thanks for any advice and experiance you may have.
