Is it okay to stop taking your birth control pill in the 3rd week and have a period for 7 days and then continue taking your 3rd week pills after?

You can do that, although I'm not sure why you would, unless you just want to have a period earlier. If you do so, be sure to start your next pack's active pills immediately after completing that third week's pills. Do not take a "placebo week" or "pill free week," as you will risk prenancy. Use a back up method of birth control during the week you're taking that "third week" late.
