I don't think the time of day matters for urine at this point (but could be wrong). I did get told it should be mid stream in this pregnancy (first time I've been told the in 3 pregnancies).

You need a full bladder. You can always empty it a bit if they need you to but difficult to do opposite

I think the full bladder depends on the scanning equipment used. If they didn't say then a full bladder won't be essential. At my 12 week scan last week I didn't have a full bladder and was fine. Also, don't go for too full in case they are running late! You'll be bursting.
