Depends also on your Playstyle. Wriggles doesn't help me in lane too much, because I like running towards the enemy even in the beginning instead of poking, so I rush Warmogs (starting with the regeneration pendant). Having 1000 HP more negates whatever damage Items they bought for 3000 Gold, and I can push them back with my built-in true damage and lifesteal. Then always Mercury's, Chainmail, Negatron, Bloodthirster. If its going good an offensive item like Phantom Dancer (faster Movement!) or even infinity Edge, then Atma's. If not build out negatron (Force of Nature) and/or chainmail (Randuin's Omen) and get a Guardian Angel.

Just remember that after Giant Belt/Warmogs you have to play agressive! A defensive style makes you a wandering meatbag that throws an axe once in a while; Olaf is a rolling force of nature! If you have a laning partner with a snare or stun it's pretty easy to reach the enemy and beat the crap out of them. If not, put a second point in Axe throw do increase damage and slow.
