Babies don't really "stop" waking at night—all humans naturally go through several wake cycles every night. What matters is whether your baby can fall back asleep on their own after waking.

General pediatric understanding: Around 4–6 months, some babies can go 6–8 hours at night without feeding. By 9–12 months, many babies can go through the night with just one feeding, though wakings are still normal. Around 12–18 months, some babies sleep through the night (without parent help) while others—often due to teething, developmental leaps, or separation anxiety—start waking again. Even after age one, wakings are part of development, not a setback.

So there's no exact age when night waking stops—but the period when parents are most rested is usually 10–14 months. If your baby is still waking then, and it's been months with the same pattern and affecting weight gain, talking with your pediatrician is a good idea.
