Waning Cresent
The phase of the Moon that comes immediately before the new Moon phase is the waning crescent phase.
The "waning gibbous" phase lasts from 2 days after the full to 6 days after the full.
The phase of the Moon that occurs when it is three-quarters full just before the full Moon phase is the waxing gibbous phase. This phase occurs as the Moon is waxing, or growing larger, towards the full Moon.
The Moon was full two days ago, so for the next 5 days the Moon will be in the "waning gibbous" phase. On Saturday, 2/6/10, the Moon will be at the Third Quarter phase.
The crescent phase that precedes the new moon phase is called the waxing crescent, where the illuminated portion of the moon is increasing. The crescent phase that follows the new moon phase is called the waning crescent, where the illuminated portion of the moon is decreasing.

That time has past
April 17, 2014 featured a waning gibbous moon. This phase occurs after the full moon and before the last quarter phase, where more than half but less than fully illuminated.
The Moon was full on 12/2/09.
Phase of the Moon on 23 April: waning crescent with 3% of the Moon's visible disk illuminated. New Moon on 24 April 2009 at 11:23 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. The phase of the Moon is the same for any observer in the world at that time; it all depends on where the Moon is in its orbit.
No. April 2, 2011 was not a full moon. The full moon in April 2011 happened on April 17.
