I think you may be concentrating on HH to much.
you should be at a level of consciousness where you are aware of HH, but don't become distracted by it.
I am usually in sleep paralysis at that stage.
you mentioned that you started getting dips in consciousness
around breath 45
I think you are just at the beginning, it takes me 300+ exhales before I'm "there" and my mind is completely empty, apart from the counting and imagery etc, try to visualize the numbers as you count, it helps.
As for sleep paralysis, for me it comes spontaneously
I usually get a strong feeling of leaving my body and a lot of sound hallucinations, like people talking, whooshing sounds followed by a loud bang sending an electric felling through whole body before I basically leave my body completely.
then I fell like I'm floating, or spinning or being pulled upwards, or sometimes I fell like I'm falling through my bed,
Before I begin to see a dream form in front of me usually very unstable at first, a bunch of flashing images constantly morphing scenes etc and this is where I often try to do to much to soon and wake up. (watch out for false awakenings tho, I've had one to many at this stage)
Oh and the "shaken" felling you got in HH is very common, you just stumbled and your body's defense is to stop yourself falling, so you are jolted awake, happens to me a lot when running in early dream stages.
My advise is be calm, be relaxed, observe HH but don't dwell on it, concentrate and most of all believe
