I think this completely depends on the kid. My DS was trained at 4 and my DD trained the same time as when she was potty trained at age 2-1/2. They both trained themself

One of my childrwn was trained at 2 and 2 months, the same time that they were day trained.
Another child was not night trained until age 6.5. We went to a urologist and followed specific exercises that we were given. It took just a couple of weeks.

Ds1 trained at 3 1/4, almost 4 and still not dry at night.

You can't really "train" for night, because they are sleeping. Training is something done while they are conscious and can make a decision to use the bathroom. At night, it's just a matter of the muscles being strong enough to send a signal to the child's brain that will wake them up and tell them they need to use the bathroom.

DD was day trained at just before 3, and she would wake up once a night, not fully awake, but kinda fussy. She would fuss until I woke up, and I would put her on the toilet. She'd make, and then I'd put her back in bed. I don't think she ever fully woke up. We did that for several months, and eventually she'd sleep through the whole night and wake up dry.

How do you train a kid to wake up at night? My almost 5 y/o used to stay dry, but recently more often than not, he's waking up soaked--and he goes right before bed (often twice) and wakes up with a full bladder and runs to the bathroom around 7am. We've also tried limiting drinks before bed also.

Depends on the child. Mine was closer to eight. After age seven, a bed wetting alarm is very helpful for night training. Most get the hang of it sooner on their own.
