antifreeze in oil

So I replaced my motor and after I installed it I left it run so I could make sure it didn't over heat and once it reached the operating temp I left it run a lil while longer . Didn't over heat so I changed the oil after and coolent is mixed in my oil so . I did the same thing again ran the car and changed the oil again same thing .. the only thing is the car dosnt smoke but after the test drive to get gas car ran for awhile and started to over heat .. so would that mean my head gasket is blown ? Sorry if I missed spelledd anything typing on my phone at work real quick ..

Headgasket. Cracked block. Could be a lot of things.

If it didn't smoke, then I'd lean more towards a cracked block since antifreeze is not getting into the cylinder.
