You can take the breaks in either order. It's important to remember that the breaks pause the 14-hour clock; they do not reset the clock. Once a full 10-hour break occurs, you'll have a full 14-hour clock. The split sleeper berth rule cannot be used if you're in violation of your 11-, 14-, 8- or 70-hour clock.
