I'm about 5 months pregnant at 16 (17 in July). And I wanted to know if I could marry the father without parents signature?In Louisiana.

Nope. Under 18 needs the consent of both parents.

Louisiana Marriage License Laws > LA Wedding Officiants (http://usmarriagelaws.com/search/united_states/louisiana/index.shtml)

And since the age of consent is 17, the father may be prosecuted for statutory rape.
