My Rowdy woke me up in the middle of the night till he was about 4-5 months old, then it just stopped one night, I don't know why - but he just started sleeping through the night. He's a year old now and he will occasionally wake me up to go out, but not very often. I have a 12 year old schnauzer who has gone through periods in his life where he would wake me up EVERY night to go out - when he was 4, 7, 10 years old - it didn't matter. It seemed like it was a habit for a week or two, then he would stop.
I think your baby will grow out of it, he's still pretty little, but if he's going potty in the crate, I'd say that he has a very small bladder or is more sensitive to the sensation and it may take him a little longer than usual.
