False, it's establishment or mid-career

Explanation:

Career stages are different phases during the employee's or business owner's life. There are five major career phases: exploration, establishment, mid-career, late career and decline. These phases are mostly age and experience orientated.

The establishment phase starts with the age of 25 and finishes with 35. This is the time window when most women become mothers today. During this stage, many women are force to give up their jobs, pass over a promotion or reduce their working load due to their family obligations and responsibilities. It is still very difficult for women to combine career with having a family.

The age when women become mothers for the first time is increasing all the time and the mid-career phase (35-50) is often the phase where they face the above challenges.
