The gibbous moon appears to grow fatter each night until we see the full sunlit face of the Moon. We call this phase the full moon.

Full Moon. I think it could be more or less any phase. The phase of the Moon doesn't change much from moonrise until the Moon sets. True. But it is only the Full Moon that rises as the sun sets, and so is highest in the sky ... due south for northern-hemisphere observers ... at Midnight.

Which moon is setting in the west a couple of hours before sunrise?
The waning gibbous phase of the Moon. Think of it this way. The full moon rises at sunset, and sets around sunrise. The Moon's apparent motion in the sky is "backwards"; everything seems to move east to west, but from evening to evening, the Moon seems to be moving west to east. So the phase of the Moon that sets a couple of hours before sunrise is the waning gibbous moon, about 3 days past the full.
