help me find and fix my problem

Alright today when I started up my car there was cloud of white smoke from the tailpipe. Now from what I read white smoke=blow headgasket =bad but it also seems that when you have a blown headgasket it smoke all the time and alot of it comes out. I only have it when I start the car(this is maybe the second time I noticed it) and only then. Also if I start it then shut it off and start it agian I get no smoke. Could this possibly be caused by a blown turbo? I wouldn't imagine it would be the headgasket becuase it was replaced about 3k miles ago when I rebuilt my head. One last thing lately my car is harder to start it cranks for a while and I usually have to give it some gas, when it starts the idle is pretty rough and then smooths out after a few seconds. I don't know what caused this but I think my fuel filter is clogged and have been meaning to change it. So if that helps you guys come to some kind of conclusion I hope it helps. Anyway thanks in advance.

Sounds pretty much normal to me. Most cars will blow white smoke for a few minutes until the condensation is out of the exhaust.
